    Looking to buy Flintlock Rifle

    Just ordered a Lyman Trade Rifle .54 Cal Flint for $420 shipped to my door! Just can't justify (even saving up) a $1,000 gun any time soon. Based on all of your recommendations this should be a great gun (at an amazing price) to learn on. Thanks again for you recommendations and I'm looking...

    Looking to buy Flintlock Rifle

    Just 11 days till Colorado draw results :) Can't wait. Didn't put in for muzzle loader because I didn't know if I would have one for it. Rifle Elk and Archery Deer though, we'll see... :grin:

    Looking to buy Flintlock Rifle

    Thanks for all of the reply's and suggestions. I think I'm set on Lyman for now. I am capped at $500 and below for now unfortunately. A Pedersoli Missouri River Hawken will probably end up being my pride and joy some day... Still trying to make up my mind between .54 Flint Trade or Great...

    Lyman Trade Rifle Kit?

    Does the Lyman trade rifle come in a kit? I'm not finding one, didn't know if it is available or just as a complete rifle.

    Looking to buy Flintlock Rifle

    Great, thanks gents! I was debating the .50 vs .54 as well. It's first purpose is to introduce me to flinters, second is deer and elk. The .50 and .54 don't cost a whole lot different but I'm worried about the availability of the .54. If anyone knows of a good used rifle in that style (LGP, Ped...

    Midsouth Shooters Supply

    Anyone had any dealings with these guys? They seem to have the best prices anywhere for Flinters. I could get a Lyman Great Plains shipped to my front door for $560. About $100 cheaper than anywhere else.

    Looking to buy Flintlock Rifle

    So I've caught the black powder bug (Uberti 3rd Model Dragoon) and want a flintlock rifle to add to my collection. I cannot justify a $800 flintlock at this time so my eyes are on the Lyman Great Plains Flinter in .50. Any suggestions or comments on that rifle or possibly other ideas? Thanks

    Dragoon Gumming Up

    Thanks everyone. My dragoon functioned much better today! I thought I was doing well at 25 ft with 6" grouping until a range worker came by and he was getting about 2" grouping. Amazing how accurate these cap and ball guns are.

    Dragoon Gumming Up

    My Dragoon worked flawlessly until it started gumming up and became hard to cycle. Not sure what the part is called that the cylinder slides over and revolves around (cylinder rod maybe) but I'm thinking it's because I put standard hops lube on that for the cylinder to ride on and it gummed up...
