    I Find It Strange

    Some people just like flint locks an a newer style of rifle. I mean people can build what ever they want even if it isnt period correct. Its like buying a new motorcycle frame and putting an old pan head in it. Sure it isnt period correct but if its done well it can look good.

    Thanks guys I will give your ideas a try. I would just like to be able to go out shooting and not come back with a swollen sore finger. I got spoiled by my flintlock.

    Value of a custom flintlock

    What kind of wood finish would you use? In all the stocks I have refinished I have either used the Berchwood Casey stuff or linseed oil. I think this stock just has an oil finish on it. I have to disagree with the statement about custom guns being overpriced. When you consider the man hours...

    Value of a custom flintlock

    Thanks guys. I just wanted to get some idea of its worth for insurance. I don't have a problem putting a value on production guns but custom stuff I dont have a clue.

    Investarms Hawken?

    I have a lefty hawken from Cabelas in 50 caliber but I havent got to shoot it yet. The set trigger is very heavy but I am also comparing it to my custom flintlock. Everything else looks good. I just sold a lefty in 54 and have one in a carbine that I am trying to sell. I thought I could move...

    Value of a custom flintlock

    Thanks, I am not really interested in selling it. I am just interested in its worth. I paid 300 for it but I know I couldn't replace it for that much.

    Value of a custom flintlock

    Hello Everyone. I bought this gun awhile back and was trying to figure out a value. Since it is a custom gun I am not sure. Can you guys help me out. It is a left handed 45 caliber. The stock was cracked but repaired (I would have done a better job but, I got it that way)and some boogered up...
