modern blackpowder pistols?

Theres is a fellow I work with who is interested in purchasing a blackpowder pistol. For the life of me, I can't recall any modern manufacturers that have one available. Surely there must be someone who has these available? CVA, Traditions? If so, please provide manufacturers and names of the models? Thanks so much.

Traditions makes the .50 Vortek:

And of course there are a number of modern manufacturers of replica black powder pistols, such as Uberti and Pietta, both available through Cabela's. Pretty much all of the pistols are manufactured in Italy these days, but the QC is usally more than adequate.
