Really want a flint lock pistol but can't find any decent reproductions.
I checked Dixie Gun Works and have been through Gun Broker several times. Don't know were else to look.
Looking for military style pistols and just not finding anything decent.

Anyone making decent flint lock reproductions?

Try The Gun Works in Springfield, Oregon. Joe Williams is a great guy to deal with, and he can arrange to have a custom gun built if need be. Here is a link:

I don't know anything about flinters, but I've heard/read in passing that Track of The Wolf is a reliable place to do business.2ndovc wrote:Really want a flint lock pistol but can't find any decent reproductions.

You could find enough parts to make your own, and get exactly what you want.

I agree with Blaine , Track of the Wolf.

Pedersoli has a couple of military pistols available and the locks of theirs that I've seen spark nicely.

We do have a couple of longrifle builders on the forum I figure they can make a short gun too.

If you want a kit try The Rifle Shoppe. I don't think they sell complete finished guns but they do supply assembled and tuned locks. I have one of their Baker rifles and it's really nice.http://www.therifleshoppe.com/default.htm
