The cost of muskets varied greatly because of the revolutionary war. The best average is around $12 which was a considerable amount of money then. Guns were relatively expensive then because they were in short supply with the government often buying them out of stock. They could occasionally be obtained from a battlefield as there were often many left that were not picked up by remaining soldiers.
