Lets see some flintlock pistols!

I would like too find a sea service pistol like Master Blaster,omly with a brass barrel.

This is a French Dragoon Model 1733 that I made from MBS parts. It's got a 15.5" barrel, and holds beautifully. I am seriously considering making a second.

Nice work. I've been thinking about an MBS Ketland kit.

They're like potato chips though, you can't have just one...

Ha! Funny you should say that. I told the missus the same thing…for some reason she failed to see the humor in it all.

If you check out CapandBall on YouTube he has quite a few videos of European Military rifles and their accoutrement sets that utilize the lanyarded rod. Should give you an general idea, but I’m sure someone has a pic...

I did a rely great site, and he shoots all of them. thank you for the reply. toot.

Here is the web page that describes everything: Breech-loading flintlock pistol

so it is sorta like a HALL weapon.?

Hi,
Here is a Bill Kennedy kit pistol I built last year. It is a match for my British officer's rifled fusil.

Fantastic. I had read that Bill Kennedy turned the business to Chris Atland (?) . Would love to see such a kit as this one.

If you like pistols and cases, here is how a historically correct British case is made:

Dave,
That's a beautiful case, you have good hands, and the pistols, WOW!!! Did you build them as well?
It's hard to tell from the pictures on my tablet, that looks like mahogany. Am I correct?

Kid,
I think that just might be my favorite out of all the fine pistols in this thread. I like the iron mounts and the subtle look to it. It's sleek lines and that beautiful piece of maple say it all. Stunning.

The .45 I made from a kit when I was in high school. The .50 I made from a kit in the late 1980's. I shoot them both all the time. Bill

Some I built.

Just picked this up at the local black powder shop. 44 caliber. Unknown maker, barrel and lock. Wood/metal fit is better than most. Made a new ramrod, cleaned up the lock, still have to make new sights and fit them. Looks to be unfired, but I'll be correcting that as soon as I get the sights on it.

Stupid phone flipped the pictures. Here they are right side up. Most of us here are too old to stand on our heads to look at those pics, me especially!

Some I built.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one with a soft spot for flint pistols. LOL Nice work.

Your clock is sideways…..

That is correct for Canada.

Some I built.

Very, very nice (as I slowly put the Pedersoli Kentucky pistol back in the drawer and put the camera away)
