I'm interested in building a traditional BP firearm from a kit, and was curious if this particular kit has the potential to be a good, entry level project. I would be interested in putting one together, but would like to know what other members thought of this pistol, and if there are other options that would be better at a similar price. I've never done a kit of any kind, or finished the metal of a firearm, but have made a few knives, and have basic metal, and wood working tools. I am pretty excited to have found this forum. This is a noob project, and I hope I'm not detracting from this particular sub-forum, I just am trying to find a starting point to get into building Black Powder firearms. I certainly have a lot to learn, and really respect the views of all of you on this forum.
