Hello everyone,
I am new to the forum and have been interested in firearms of all types for most of my adult life. Ive owned several and recently I have been intrigued by the world of black powder and all that goes along with it.
My first build was a Kentucky Rifle from Traditions and needless to say it took some work to make right. The gun looked good but I never fired it. I probably wont buy another kit from them again but the Deerhunter looks like a fun build.
I will be purchasing the 54 cal Lyman Great Plains Rifle Kit in a few weeks if i can ever get back home. I am on vacation in Florida and cant wait to make the order to Mid south shooter supply. Best deal I could find. Track of the wolf was too much money i thought.
Anyway im pretty much sold on the accuracy and quality of the parts. I keep reading "the best bang for the buck" when i read reviews of the rifle. I will put peep sights on it and I hear its very accurate.
quick question:
has this lock been blued?
or is this the way the lock will look in the kit?
Thanks for the great forum and i look forward to being apart of this firearm community for years to come!
Joseph
