Default Flintlocks

Rick, I also am a flintlock fan. My current rifle is s custom Getz barreled .58 cal 1in 96 twist english sporting rifle. My turkey gun is also a custom 10ga flintlock. It gives me great pleasure hunting the 'old' way with these guns. Jim

Nice sporting rifle Jim;

John Getz makes a great barrel.

I tend towards the Pennsylvania lines myself

a transitional/early style Lancaster


A late 18th century style Schoyer that I need to learn to engrave to finsh



a little detail on that one


but the guys who can make their own barrels and locks the original way still impress the heck out of me
