Default RE: Would you buy a use BP rifle for shooting.

If all you want is a sidelock for display, then get a Hawkins with lots of brass, or some old military musket. Also many of the Kentucky style rifle make a good display. I'd personally rather shoot them thendisplay them.. the old Military musketsare longer and tend to stand out well on the wall. Hawkins are nice looking rifles, but there are many different makes of "Hawkins."
