Many years ago,,,

Over 30 to be exact,,,

Me and three buddies all bought percussion pistol kits at a gun show,,,
I had tons of experience in woodworking so mine came out nice,,,
The other three ranged the gamut of cosmetic achievement.

The one thing they all had in common is that they all shot the same,,,
It didn't matter how ugly or pretty the finished product was,,,
The accuracy of them all was comparable to any other.

Minute of coffee can or slightly better at 25 yards.

Pedersoli was the brand of the gun kits we bought,,,
All of the parts fit with a minimum of filing.

There's not much monetary savings in a kit though,,,
At least that's what a quick Google search showed to me.

But I did enjoy shooting the gun,,,
Much more fun than a muzzle loading rifle for me,,,
And the handgun was ever so much easier to clean after shooting it.

The four of us spent a happy summer "dueling" with each other,,,
I eventually sold my pistol to one of the other guys,,,
Because he wanted a "dueling pair" as well.

Go for it my friend,,,
You'll have fun.
