That Lyman Trade Rifle is a good flintlock. I have one. It is a meat taker and a good shooter. It will not let you down. nchawkeye hit it right on the head with the cheap flintlock idea.

Put that two-day season out of your mind. What's important is the amount of fun you will have shooting a flintlock year round. You might even find yourself using the flinter during the ten-day regular gun season.
