Interested in a TVM Leman 54 cal flintlock - Anyone own or have experience with one?

[jetcsa]

I spoke with a gentleman at Tennessee Valley Muzzleloading today, regarding their Leman 54 cal flintlock. He answered a lot of questions and gave me a lot of good information. I was wondering if anyone here owns one of these rifles, or has had any experience with them? If so, was it a kit gun or built by TVM?

Matt, at TVM, makes a fine gun. He also offers kits aimed at the hobbyist with, at least, some modest skills. These guns are also offered "in-the-white", assembled but not finished. I personally like the Leman style and it's a fine rifle whether you buy one finished or just buy the parts and build it from scratch.

Matt is who I spoke with. If his guns are half as nice as he is to talk to, I need one bad!

I would be looking at the Late English Lock or the Durs Egg Lock. While I would prefer a tapered barrel, I would choose the swamped barrel instead of the straight barrel for improved balance. A double set trigger would be nice but not necessary.

These are considered to be semi-custom guns and can be ordered to meet your needs.
