Thumbs up Found a blackpowder gun, thanks guys!!

The one I had lined up yesterday has gone to someone else apparently.
I am looking for a non-inline blackpowder percussion rifle kit for Oldman, who has just had a complete hip replacement and needs a hobby to take his mind off everything. He has hunted for over 55 years, and has decided he would like to get a deer this or next fall.
Again, if you have 1, or know where 1 is, I would like to buy one for him.
If it is built and needs refinishing he enjoys that, or if it is an old unbuilt kit that is complete, that would be awesome.
This man was my hunting mentor, taught me to flyfish and tie flies, I would really like to help him out.
Please PM me if you have something we can use.

Try these guys... But it seems the kits they do have are missing parts, mostly the lock.

Or try Clay @ Prophet River, and get him to order a Traditions from the States.

Ken

There are a ton of really good kits available for reasonable prices. You can also get the kits done to a certain level so some of the harder stuff is complete. If you are interested let me know, I have access to at east 20 makers. Flint locks can be imported direct as they are not firearms. Percussion can be ordered too, with little problem.
