Flint for my Flintlock

[chaffinles]

I have a new Frontier by Pedersoli. How do I determine the right size flint to use?

Mine takes 7/8"

Measure the width of your frizzen and choose the flint that is the closest to that size but doesn't exceed it.

If it is too wide the flint will either hit the side of the barrel, the side of the pan or both, resulting in shattering the rock and marring your gun.

yep, 7/8" is the way to go.

My Pedersoli .45 Blue Ridge/Frontier takes the 7/8" flints. It's a big flint for a big lock, but what a sparker! :thumbsup:
