Just acquired a blackpowder 50cal kit with missing and incorrect parts (free). I'm hoping to get some help here.

This is what I have.y 1st ? are most parts TC or Traditions. The barrel is stamped Traditions and dates back to the 80's & has 66 twist. The brass fits the stock nicely. I'd like to know what I have. Maybe it's not worth finishing. Thanks

if you are comfortable with putting it together by all means do so. Looks like a traditions
looks like most parts to assemble but for the drum. not a top tier kit but bet it will go bang when completed.
