I have one I built from a kit , around 20 years ago . The accuracy sucked , until I recently replaced the adjustable rear sight (IMO , a piece of junk) and the front sight , with a semi-buckhorn fixed(drift adjustable) rear sight , and a nickle silver (file adjustable) front sight . I also switched from using .310 roundball , .015 patch , to .315 roundball , .010 patch . So far , my best 3 shot group @ 25 yards is 9/16" :thumbsup: (your results may vary :grin: ) . My advice ? Go for it !
