cphubert 0 Report post Posted August 8 Ordered a Kibler Fowler flintlock kit for a side project and turkey & deer black powder hunting. Used to hunt with the cap and ball rifle for deer for the black powder season. This will be my first flint gun other than an old Brown Bess we had in the family farmhouse that no one would trust to fire. I'll post a few pictures when it arrives, probably will be a while. This is my first kit gun looking forward to the build and finish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poopdeck 0 Report post Posted August 9 That’s a nice project. I put together one of those double trigger Hawkins .50 cal kits 35 years ago. Still have it but I wore the sear down to a hair trigger. Haven’t fired it in years but boy did I have good time with it at the range. Have fun with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted August 9 That will be a fun project. I don't own any black powder/flintlock guns, but I've thought a few times over the years about getting something like that to add to the collection. I really wish I would have bought one of the old black powder Navy style revolvers years ago. I remember when you could get those for $99.99, and when I started looking at them a few months back, they are all $200-$300 range these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
