I told myself I was done with flinters. But I say this early 'gade, # 7489x, dirty but not fouled, with a great lock ( no hammer wobble on the tumbler) and the sweetest unset trigger ever.
The bore patched a little rough and showed some orange, but some steel wool and JB took care of it. Only one defect a little larger than an AR 15 gas port. Hopefully that's all the is.
She has the old Patridge sights and wood/ metal finish is almost 100%.
Up until now the flintlock has beaten me. I hope this one breaks the jinx.
Lots of work to do to be ready for December...
