Default Those darn Mtn rifles!

Ive had enough of waiting and screwing around for someone to either email me back or get the GPR's in stock.

Soooo, I found a great looking .45cal CVA Mountain Rifle Percussion. The best thing about it..... Curly Maple stock!!
Im going to give CVA a call tomorrow and see how much it will cost me for them to convert it over to a flintlock. Looks like the lock iwll only cost me $65.

With a Curly Maple stock, this rifle is to good to pass up.
