round barrel t/c flintlocks?
« on: May 11, 2013, 05:40:17 PM »
one of the many drawbacks of livin' to be so damn old is yer memory has a tendency to fade on ya. and I got rid of all my old catalogs in a great declutterin' a few years back. so, here's my question : besides the firestorm what models of round barreled sidelocks did t/c offer in flintlock? i'm almost certain there was at least one or two more.
 
thanks for any help & have a good'en friends, bubba.

i don,t know if they did,but i modified a pa. hunter half round-oct.  barrel to fit a TC hawkin flint lock. all that was needed was to shorten the under rib a little,round it off and cold blue. it made the rifle weight about a pound lighter. the pa hunter only came with the round ball twist. eastbank.

 I'm acquainted with most of the octagon models. I want to know what round barreled models were available other than the firestorm. bugflippers comment about the new Englander is what i'm lookin' for. any other models that ya know of? thanks for the help & have a good'en friends, bubba.
