I have been looking at many different styles of rifles to determine what I want to save for. I may get a TC Hawken just to have something to make smoke with but want a good quality longrifle.
It dawned on me what to look at. My grandparents- on both sides, came here to Texas from the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. The idea of a rifle that may be like what my ancesters used appeals to me.
Are the early Tennessee Longrifles all percussion, or are they also flint?
Can someone point me to some info on these rifles? I will be doing a search but appreciate any help.
