1795 Springfield Kit

[Jackman]

I would like to buy a 1795 Springfield kit question is what is a good source for one? Ive seen the Pedesoli can't seem to find anyone else that sells them.

Just same your $$ and buy an original. It will be less painful in the long run.

really, originals are available, where?

Watch the auctions. And the web. They appear occasionally.

Do a search on Gunbroker for 1795 Springfield. There are several there. Be prepared for major, I mean major sticker shock. 3 time more than I paid for my original 1816. I'm curious. Do you have any experience with original muskets? Caveat Emptor.

If yer shootin, Id prefer a modern solid barrel drilled out, to a lap welded barrel.
