The rendezvous is not real tight about what you shoot. Budget under $500.00To start with, what is your budget?
Do rendezvous's have a criteria for what is acceptable at them?
[QUOTE="wpjson, post: 1564352, member: 26774 She thought she would like a kit. But others suggested otherwise. This will be her first good pistol. Please advise.
She is 6 ft tall, rugby player. Just would like some opinion as to quality pistol. I have a CVS Hawken I like. I would like to keep it 50 cal because her rifle is a 50.[/QUOTE]First its going to be your daughter's pistol, if she feels she can put a kit together then get her what she wants, not what other people advise. Not knowing how old or how big your daughter is, get one that will fit her hand. I don't think cal. really matters because you can adjust recoil with the powder chargers. Christmas is a ways off, you both have plenty of time to see what is out there and what she would like. And buy the best that you can.
That LePaige is sure a pretty piece!She might fancy one of these. I have one on the way. It's .45 cal though. Chiappa Napolean Lepage View attachment 10309
The possibles shop does not show on their site availability or prices. Most are marked not available or call to order. This tells me they do not stock anything, but order from manufacturer as orders come in. This would cause months long wait times.You might want to look at the Possibles Shop. They have some reasonable priced pistols. Both flintlock and caplock.
