Semi,
Do you hunt with either of the flinters you have peeps on? I know your Louisiana woodlands don't look like our Eastern Hardwood forests but they both have varying degrees of dense cover. Have you found any difficulty using a peep for
your hunting situations?
I only have one Renegade flinter that has a 3-screw tang. I actually have two flinters that have a 3-screw tang but I have no intention of drilling and tapping my .45 Hawken. The Renegade's the one I was toying with mounting a peep on. I'd rather not drill and tap the Hawken... it was my first flintlock purchased new in '76.
