Flintlock Pistols...

The CVA mountain pistol did come in flint, you could look for one of those at an on-line auction sight. The traditions trapper is available in flint, but is sort of heavy and clunky.

The Italian made Petralaseldi pistols are great shooters!

I like those pistols photos. I've posted this pic before of my .50 flintlock. A great shooter, it has a pinned barrel and no hooked breech. Thirty grains of 3F is the all-around load and about as much recoil it can have without spoiling the fun. Add 10 or 15 more grains of powder, a deer load, and it's fire and thunder. For extended shooting 20 to 25 grains is accurate and good for small game.

Have you looked at the Lyman Plains Pistol? It's avaliable in .54, flint, has a hook breech for disassembly, avaliable as a kit or finished. There is an ongoing discussion about these pistols in the Handguns section.

Caplock only

A very nice looking pistol. Great looking wood.

Great looking pistol ! Beautiful wood. Did you make that or was it a kit ?

I saw a pistol on Cabin Creek Muzzle loaders website for their Colonial American Pistol kit. Comers in .50 and .54, 8 3/4 barrel octagon to round in a few different wood types. Kit starts at $750.00. Do not know anything about it but it looks nice. After I finish my Kiblers Colonial in .54 I may look at that one also.

Looks to me like there's a bit of work to do yet.

Good luck with that, Sir!
