    Need recommendation on getting my first flintlock

    Damn lol I'm convinced!!!! Now I have to decide between rifled and smoothbore. It'll be just for target shooting and I already have two percussion rifles. Should I get a smoothbore just for the sake of having one?

    I am leaning towards getting a Dixie Pennsylvania rifle for now. It's 1100 shipped with no tax and I don't trust my self on putting together a Kiblers (I am super interested in getting one I just can't trust my skill!)

    In fact I'm open to either. I was looking at it too. Does the stock require any sort of woodworking other than painting it with perhaps wood stains and truoil (or tung oil) if not then I'm all good to go! Thank you sir!

    Do you guys have a "go-to" website for ordering a Charleville? How much am I looking at for one in brand new condition?

    I was looking at Kiblers too but my wood working skills is next to zero and very much likely I'll destroy the stock.

    Need recommendation on getting my first flintlock

    Yes sir I'll be shooting it but it's not going to be my primary firearm. I've reloaded and shot other black powder rifles like Martini Henry, Springfield trapdoor, Swiss Vetterli and Mauser 1871. And I've shot a few percussions. So I am kinda sorta familiar with black powder unless I'm missing...
