Flintlock Gunsmithing

[TheThunderGun]

Hello all I want to get into building my own guns, to recreate some older models because it's difficult to find Spanish Muskets now a days . ANYWAYS I was looking for some points and tools that I'll need to get started. I'm in alabama and have some basic tools already but there some things I don't believe I have and I want to hear from experienced builders on what they use and what I would likely need. So I can create a list. I'm not aiming to exactly forge every little piece but I'd like to carve my own stocks, etc. As well as put together and fit the parts how I want. Like I said not sure I'll be forging the tangs and barrels or anything but still. Anyways thanks all!

Thank you I'm new to attempting something this large so it will be helpful.
