The choices are endless of course MUZZYMAN, and there's always the "how do they fit you" thing.
But you asked. If it were me I would be getting a .54 Lyman Great Plains flintlock and a .50 TC Omega.

I would second the .54 caliber Lyman Great Plains Rifle as the flintlock. But for the inline I would look at a T/C Triumph or a CVA Accura V2 in .50 caliber of course.

Italy does have some of the highest proof testing standards though of any country but i dont think that is the point.
