Silent Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Are there any good website out there with working flintlock pistols?
Captain Midnight Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Ahoy Silent, Have you tried Loyalist Arms? That's where I got my pistol, an English doglock dragoon ca. 1640-1699. They are nice folks, located in Nova Scotia, Canada. Loyalist Arms & Repairs "Now then, me bullies! Would you rather do the gallows dance, and hang in chains 'til the crows pluck your eyes from your rotten skulls? Or would you feel the roll of a stout ship beneath your feet again?" ---Captain William Kidd--- (1945)
Silent Posted November 7, 2005 Author Posted November 7, 2005 Thanks I'll check them out *here be a drink fer yea mate*
HarborMaster Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I purchased the Sea Service Pistol 2 years ago and am real happy., course its not as big only a .62 caliber from Military Heritage and a Brass Queen Anne from davide-pedersoli which I am still waiting on. I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
Captain_MacNamara Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I highly recommend Perdersoli... Dixie Gun Works sells a nice kit for a Queen Anne Flintlock. Captain of the Iron Lotus It is the angle that holds the rope, not the size of the hole.
Gentleman of Fortune Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 There are several establishments that sell flintlocks.... its just a question of how much do you want to spend. I have some Flintlock Info on my Pirate Webpage that might be worth checking out.... http://www.gentlemenoffortune.com/arms.htm On the cheaper end of the scale, you have the Queen Anne Kit from Pedersoli. This can be found for less than $300 and is the kind of kit that you can put together in a weekend. Then there are the India arms "remanufacturers". These are the folks that are having guns made in India, and then refinishing or embellishing them a bit before selling them to folks like us. The big three are Loyalist Arms (Canadian), Middlesex Village Trading Company (US) and The Descriminating General. They all have variations ofy the same guns so check each one out. After that, you can either build a gun yourself from cast parts (From the Rifle Shoppe) or have a gun built for you from parts from a competent builder like Mike Brooks or Ben Coogle or ??? Good luck and let us know what you decided to do.
