Description
A highly complete modern Thompson/Center Arms (T/C) OMEGA muzzleloading rifle. This model is chambered in .50 CAL and features a robust, weather-resistant construction ideal for hunting. The rifle utilizes a 28-inch satin-finished stainless steel (SST) barrel paired with a black composite stock and forend, which includes textured grip areas for secure handling. The action is an in-line muzzleloading design, known for its reliability and ease of cleaning compared to traditional side-lock actions. The exposed metallic components, including the trigger group, are silver-toned. The barrel is clearly marked with the manufacturer and location: “THOMPSON/CENTER ARMS ROCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE,” and the model designation “OMEGA.” The receiver area displays the serial number S123929. Safety warnings etched into the barrel specify the use of “BLACK POWDER OR PYRODEX ONLY—DO NOT USE SMOKELESS POWDER.” The rifle is fitted with a black Picatinny-style scope rail for easy optic mounting and includes its original factory sights. This firearm is accompanied by its original black cardboard packaging, which confirms the specifications as “OMEGA MUZZLELOADER 28″ SST / COMPOSITE” and matches the serial number S123929. Also present is the original document tag.
