New Flinter on order!
« on: January 23, 2021, 10:41:45 AM »
Not sure if I am posting in the correct place but this seems the most logical. Feel free to move it as you'd like.

I just ordered a Lapage flintlock target pistol. When I actually get it will post better pictures and details

That's a beautiful piece. Can't wait to hear how it is once you have it in hand.

I am anxious to get it also! Bought it from Dixie GW. They told me that they are 4 weeks behind on shipping.

I am impatient also but it is not an option! I could wait a couple of weeks to order it and that would still put me out another 4 weeks. I figured 4 is better than 6 or 8 or........  (7+"

I am anxious to get it. It is apparently very accurate and in addition to being a very good looking flinter, accuracy is what I am wanting!

Hey tljack-
Just curious- did the pistol ever arrive, and were you happy with the fit and finish?
What caliber, and just how accurate is it?
