A paradox under a grand, that is very tempting as you know. Most of the very few paradox guns i have seen were H&H - and not cheap. I don't know the maker (what are the proofs? Birmingham or London) but it looks like a quality piece.
if I were going to pop on it ( i did not go to the local show last weekend to avoid temptation)
I assume you would need to find brass and handload.
is it where you can give it a good inspection?
my decision points would be
what are the bores like? I am of the camp that they matter the most. (that doesn't keep me from kicking my self from passing on some)
and is the stock repairable (i would make the effort to save that one if it could be) or is a replacement needed, that is not a simple duplicator process. I have inletted flintlocks and I truly admire the quality of work on even mid class British guns with sidelocks or backlocks.
man I do like that piece
