Our biggest problem is being able to buy enough stuff,” said Daly. “We don’t have any trouble selling it.”
The Powder Horn has authentic Civil War muskets starting at about $1,000, running the gamut to a $5,200 pre-war Harpers Ferry gun that Daly offered recently and was swamped with calls for.
He also has cartridge boxes, swords, belts, buckles, canteens, revolvers and other relics of the war. A cavalry saber runs from $350 to $2,000 depending.on condition.
“Just about anything Civil War is very collectible,” Daly said. “It’s more popular every day.”
He adds, with a rueful chuckle, “I made a mistake about 25 years ago of selling my relic collection for $6,500. If I had it today it would probably sell for $30,000.”
Just up the street in Middleburg is David Condon Inc., which has high-end antique arms and armor.
