I have built 2 Kentucky Rifle kits, one percussion, one flint. Both are good shooters. Both needed inletting and some tweaking. I would never consider them "sandpaper and screwdriver" kits.

I purchased a 45 caliber traditions flintlock kit three years ago just for the heck of it and chose the absolute least expensive one I could find. The piece was fine but the lock and trigger were not so fine. I figured this before I received the rifle . I had and old lock of unknown brand on the shelf that sparked well, Luckily it needed very little modification along with a double set trigger system. It shoots well and is carried by the young lady I built it for, as the go to squirrel rifle.
