And, not just flintlocks, but all the way up to SMLE's, Lugers, and others. Many (most) are shoddy knock offs and easily spotted, but some are virtually perfect copies to the naked eye.
No bubble to burst just interested in what I might have here. At the very least I have a neat smoothbore flintlock pistol to shoot.
