With his post about the early 1851 Navy by Navy Arms I started to do a quick info search (instead of getting down to work like I SHOULD do, of course - haven't finished my first cup of coffee is my excuse). And Navy Arms' site popped up.
What intrigues me is that when I tried to follow a link on their home page for info on 77/84 Mausers, I got a "Access Denied you filthy foreigner" page instead of the info page. Here's the link to the Old Western Scrounger page linked from Navy Arms' landing page.

Grade 2 - cracked stocks. $ 895.00
Grade 3 - Solid Rubber Prop $ 699.95

in order to shoot mine. Brass is scarce and pretty expensive but mine fortunately came with 90+ pieces. Hopefully I'll get it together before the fall.
