i've noticed alot of talk about "inlines"....but hardly anymore on flintlocks unless your in a forum for them....i shot a friends of mine and i'm having a hard time seeing what all the hoopla is all about....don't get me wrong i'm not putting then down your anyone who uses them....but they just seem like a variation of a centerfire with a scope, pellets, copper jacketed bullets and all....i tried a flintlock and was bit big time with the bug....come spring i'm going to build a PA flintlock long gun with a 42" barrel....just trying to see the light....not that i'm going to rush out and buy one....thank you........................bob
