Hi everyone!

I'm a newbie from San Diego. Last year I purchased a Traditions Kentucky Rifle, my first firearm. I practiced with it diligently for a few months before going out for a pig hunt in NorCal with a friend of mine! We ended up getting a pig, but it was with his bolt action. I got the first shot off but I missed! Chalk it up to inexperience and adrenaline.

It's a fine first gun, but I'm really interested in non-Western models like Jezails, Toradars, and especially Tanegashima Teppo. I joined because I'm looking for one of the latter. I see that I have to have some posts and time on the forum though before I can start posting in the wanted section.

Thanks!

Welcome from New York State's Central-Leatherstocking region.

Good luck with your search. Happily, perhaps, for you those designs don't have much of a following and you may capture some great deals. But watch out for garage bombs of low "tolerances and materials".

I'd like to get modern repros, I've seen some decently priced antiques but I'm really hesitant to shoot an antique. I know some people do but I don't know if I could bring myself to do that.
 
Welcome from Armenia. Head over to the Pre-Flintlock subforum and you'll find some of us who own and shoot these
 
I would love to own an a Caucasian miquelet someday as part of my dream collection! They're lovely guns, and such variety too!
