    a question for those who own a traditions kentucky flintlock rifle

    from what i have read the force to open the frizzen should be about 3 lbs and the ratio of mainspring to frizzen spring is around 3-1/3 so hammer pull at about 10lbs....i have lightened my frizzen spring and noticed the frizzen seems to take less of a beating and probably prolongs flint life
