Picked up a new gun today

[Jburke]

Well I have a cheap inline and after shooting it today and having the stock crack on me I decided it would be better to buy a new gun instead of dump money into a $100 gun.  The stock on the old one is mangled beyond use now, got lucky and didn't kill myself with it at least.  Took it out of the case when I got home and the barrel just fell out of the stock. 
On to the good part.  Stopped by my favorite pawn shop afterwards and picked up a used T/C black diamond express.  Am I correct in thinking that they no longer make these guns?  It's got the camo stock with blued barrel and a set of williams fiber optic sights already on it.  Thing looks brand new, no scratches or dings anywhere.  Doesn't even look like it's been shot.  Got it for 220, and from what I can find on Gunbroker it looks like I got a pretty good price on it at least.

Not sure i have heard of a Black Diamond Express... I have seen original Black Diamond which came with a 24" barrel, and a Black Diamond XR which was the Mag version with a 26" barrel.

If I am not mistaken, the T/C Black Diamond Express has a 23.5" barrel. That was the only difference.

I did a little searching on the internet and did find some information...

Jburke not sure if you got a manual or not, but found one...

It didn't come with the gun but I had already found one and bookmarked it.  I don't know the difference between the two, it may very well be just the barrel length.  As long as it shoots straight I'm happy with it.  Unfortunatly it will have to wait a couple weeks to be shot.  Now does anyone know of a good place to buy replacement stocks for muzzleloaders?  I gotta figure out something to do with the old one and if I can find a stock cheap enough I will probably sell it, or possibly keep it as a backup.

Minor miscommunication.  The new one is a T/C, not the old broken one.  I sent an email to the company for the old one to see about getting a stock.
