Just picked this up off another site. Brand new and never been shot. Got it for 300 shipped which is about 150.00 off new price. Cant wait to shoot this one. Even got RR and badger to come and take a pic with it.

That is one sharp looking BP pistol. With you and PT and others posting about these BP pistols, you're going to get me hooked, too.

Way to go, Al...very nice pistol purchase.
It's hard to leave mine at home even as much as I like shooting my .45LC revolver. There is that extra something about the pace of shooting a single shot muzzleloader, the slow (and enjoyable) concentration needed to load consistently and correctly, and the waft of that black smoke circling around. Plus those RBs sure get hurled downrange and leave those large holes, or loudly clang that steel!
I'm looking forward (weather agreeing) to your range report on how you and the Kentucky .54 get along!

Yes they do. I have one of there Kentucky rifles in a flintlock. Had the lock tuned by Jack Brooks in Denver. Hes also done other work for me on a Lyman great Plains Rifle that I had an upgraded lock put into. Its also a flintlock 54 caliber. Flintlocks are fun but there is a learning curve to shooting them well.

Havent shot it yet PJM but next time I get the chance to make some smoke it will go with me. Weather here right now is to cold and Im not as tough as that cowboy from Alberta is.
