Hello all from central Texas, just acquired a .50 cal flintlock made by S.B. Friedman. Rifle has a swamped Goetz barrel and a Jim Chambers Siler left hand lock. Just need info of when and where this rifle was made, any information will be appreciated.

Howdy from North Texas and welcome to the forum. If your not happy with that left hand rifle send it to me, I promise I'll walk it, feed it, clean it, etc... lol.

Nothing personal but not for sale! I’ve been hunting with cap locks for 45 years and also compete in BPCR for 20 years.

I was mostly joking. As a south paw I shot RH muzzleloaders for decades before building a LH Early Lancaster from a blank. I recently bought a LH 14 bore.
Enjoy the forum.
