I'm thinking of converting my Zouave from percussion to flint, I have a great gunsmith and someone who could weld the pan onto the barrel (or do I even have to weld it ?) It is in good to fair condition and I only paid $100 for the gun so I'm not too concerned with the value, I just want to be a little more period for the re enacting I do. Any thoughts? thanks!
