I know most flintlock guys probably already know, but here's a heads-up anyway...

Track of the Wolf has English flints in stock. Orders are limited to a dozen per size on most sizes.

Nope, front sight only. I bought it mainly for shooting shot. But I hoped I could get it to group halfway decent at 50-60 yards with round ball.

So far that is not the case. Lol

Been trying to get out and shoot more since the weather warmed up, but it's been non-stop rain. crazy

I'm like Nessy, have more than ill ever use but good post. Every time I've run across some good looking flints I buy a couple and have been doing that for 40 years or more. lol

That place in Oregon should have flints too.
