Well...My opinion is that T/C is not the best...

I bought a Knight Disc in the late 90s and I feel that it is the best...It has a Green Mountain barrel, an adjustable trigger, a screw safety so you don't have to decap when pulling up the tree and the discs are easier to cap then trying to fool around with a primer...Once you fire the gun, you open the bolt and the disc will drop out in your hand...I reuse these discs 3-4 times...It's a very nice gun...An adjustable trigger to me is worth the few extra minutes it takes to pull the bolt out and disassemble and clean...

A buddy of mine has a Wolverine and another has an American Knight, all are great shooters...

I actually use my custom flintlocks much more than the inline...As far as custom guns being only for rich...Thanks for the compliment...
If you ever hold a custom made flintlock with a swamped barrel and feel the difference in how they balance, you might understand...
One of mine was bought in 1977 and I paid less than $500 for, the other, I built myself for less than $500...I mold my own round balls, buy Goex
for about $12 bucks a pound, buy a yard of pillow ticking from WalMart for about $4 bucks and make my own lube and bought about 50 flints for each back in the 80s...I can tell you that I can shoot my flintlocks much cheaper thanI canthe inline...

I get about 87 shots out of a pound of Goex with my .54 and with my squirrel load I get 280 shots to the pound with my .40...
