decent flintlock kits these days?
been missing the ones i built years ago (and foolishly sold)
managed to re-claim my .67 pistol, but the stock is badly cracked and all but the barrel missing[:(]
so it will be a parts search as well as checking out the new kits to decide which way i build my new one

can tell how many years it has been by the price tags.
may have to talk wife into a combination Christmass and March birthday present combo
or start getting peice by peice as funds allow
I visited his shop, near Asheville NC.
I thought I had set the time machine for 1774 and was in a master gunsmith's shop in Lancaster Pennsylvania.
I'm interested myself if I can find some really special ones.
charlies brother turns out about 2-3 a year with 2-5,000 price tags.
but they are works of art i couldnt even begin to try to match at this time, includeing hand engraved patch box covers, "folk art" stocks...
but seeing him at his bench when i am there gets me the itch again
have to start saveing again for a new toy with "some assembly required"
