I have been shooting traditional muzzle rifles for many years all factory percussion rifles. Couple years ago I purchased a left handed Lyman GPR 54 flinter that I much enjoy.
I have long considered assembling a full stock flinter from one of the high quality kits offered by several companies that I see in Muzzle Blasts from the NMLRA.
I am planning on attending the June shooting week in Friendship as a shopper for kit. I want the kit to be somewhat basic as a first build and one that is not a real pain to assemble until I can develop my skills and patience.
I am looking for a full stocked left handed flinter kit. I am open to recommendations as to whos kits to look at. Also open to rifled or smooth bore suggestions as well as caliber. Had not considered a smooth bore before but been reading good things about them. Thanks for all advise and suggestions!
