Any pics? If not... is it the 7.5" or the 5.5" barrel? What grips does it have? Stainless?

I didn't think he made nitro cylinders for ROA's anymore... How much is he charging you?

It was mentioned by a friend to get a gun sock for storage protection.
So I found an old sock, put gun in it... hey presto... "gun sock".
Btw: The grip is a Hogue rubbery one. Quite nice, but I think I'll make a set of grips out of oak or whatever wood the old man has laying about his shed.
Also, I've found somewhere that sells six nipples for about $17. So I may order a couple of sets.

Not really advisable to store guns in socks or anything else that absorbs moisture.

Yup a nice and shiny BP .50 revolver muzzle loader.
The sock pictured was a old sock which I haven't used for over 10 years and it is still very dry. Obviously one that doesn't absorb moisture.
