So I built this kit in the mid to late 70dies and never shot it. It is 45 cal flintlock
It is in decent shape the bore is clear and clean. I know that CVA and all others have upped their products since then so my question is has there been an issue with CVA gun barrels from that period or can I feel safe firing the gun with a 44 cal ball,lubed patch and 60 -80 grains of Goex 3f powder.
I have recently become re interested in BP fire arms.
Thanks for any info
Bob
