    First in-line system?

    Pedersoli Conversion

    I converted my Pedersioli's Jeager and bought both lock and vent in Track of the Wolf. I think also for Dixie Gun it wasn't a problem (it's a little bit more expensive).

    Unknown muzlleloading copy

    This copy is .45 caliber, 42 inches in lenght, with 26 inch octagon barrel. I think Swamp Rat is probably right(great book!). It can be one of Foster rifles. It looks very similar, even pattern on the lock is almost identical. Thanks for all your answers.
