Hi out there,

I have recently been given a 4 bore Thomas Turner flint lock gun. The barrel is 41 inches long and is in lovely condition, I was also given the block mould for casting the lead shot balls, can anyone let me know if it is of value and if so how much please ? Would you be kind enough to email me [email protected]. Many many thanks John

You're going to need to post pictures of it.

Sorry about my vocablory !! Perhaps I should just say good condition ?

It is beautiful ... A chap has offered me 750 for it but haven't a clue of its worth ...so do I hold on or let it go

assuming pretty good condition and not modifed from the original configuration, $750 would be cheap in this area.
Punt guns can bring $1000 to $2000.
Need pics and more info.

750 GBP would be roughly equivilant to $1140 USD, which would be somewhere in line with the estimate DarryH had mentioned. If you're being offered $750 USD, then as DarryH oberserved that seems to be on the low side.

Does this infer that the BB covers a Thomas Turner 4 bore??
