Hello Members,

I am looking for a smaller flintlock rifle in 40 or (preferably) 45 caliber with about a 12'' length of pull. My daughter has been bitten by the flintlock bug and being a smaller statured young lady, will require a rifle with a shorter length of pull. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have something that may suit the bill. (not looking to spend a mint, but do have some nicer flintlocks to possibly trade). Thanks in advance.

I understand what you're looking for. If you can build that may be an option for you. I built this "small frame" 45 cal flintlock rifle. I have 9 grandkids....all a bit young yet...but there's hope one will get the bug.

This has a 30" barrel, 12.25" LOP, single trigger, hook breech for easier cleaning. My total cost was $828. It's the lock and barrel that are the most costly. All brass components I made from sheet brass to keep cost down. Not HC....but shoots well!!
