Loyalist Arms

Does anyone know about the quality of the muskets sold by this company? I was thinking about buying a couple of their Enfields for reenacting and wondered about the guns.

Hello coltshooter2,  According to their web site ( http://www.loyalistarms.freeservers.com/percussionriflescarbines.html ) The Enfields that cost in the 5 to 6 bills neighborhood (US funds) are made by Euroarms, and should be of decent quality.  However, the ones in the $400 area are made by Palmetto.  The revolvers made by Palmetto seem to be poorly made, but I have heard their long guns are OK, but I have never handled one ?
    If the 1849 Hartford revolver I bought from, and returned to Dixie, is a sample of Palmetto's quality, I would suggest paying the extra $100 or two, and get one of the Euroarms Enfields.  Maybe someone who has a Palmetto long gun will correct me on this.
