First Flinter.

So the Lyman came yesterday, ones always hasten with buying anything on line let alone a ML. I had looked at many. So very pleased of the condition bore is excellent, if it was shoot wasn't much. Stock very few scratches here and there. I already pinned the ram rod ends. Took JB and Kroil to the bore,very little came out the lock was a little drity. Took Balllisto to all. Am very happy .

A sharp flint and a dry bore before you load and it'll go boom. Have fun!

Is that a .50 or a .54? ...Very excited for you and being it's a "Flinter" makes the whole deal much sweeter!

 

[Mtman725]

54 I looked for one for a long time.

Am I understanding this is your first flintlock? If so that's great. Bet you're ready to shoot it huh. Nice looking rifle. I hope it works out for you and you stick with it.

Very pretty! I've got a Lyman and I love her! Great gun!

Can't hit a damn thing with her, but the gun shoots straight.

A Great Plains rifle I presume? Looks just like mine. They are good guns. You will be pleased with it.
