Hello! I was wondering if there was an affordable production flint smoothbore (or for that matter percussion double) in the market? Something that would sort of be the smoothbore equivalent of a flint GPR? Something in the $500 range. I haven't saved the pennies yet, but I'm interested in acquiring a smoothbore, either a flint single or a percussion double (flint because, well, rock-banging just sounds awfully cool -- or a double percussion because I could play with it at cowboy matches). Are there reasonable production models in that price range, or am I better off just watching for a deal on a used flintlock fowler (or an original belgian double) in good shape?
thanks,
GB
