Überti to or pietta they make most of the guns out now.

Remember to wipe excess oil out of the barrel after cleaning, hot water and soap do wonders if you shoot regular BP, but you'll need something heavier for Pyrodex.
If you get a nice rifle and plenty of flints, you can shoot it until the liberals summon cthulu as long as you have powder and something to shoot out of it.
I don't know of any other brand than Uberti and Pietta who do this.
Is there a comprehensive list of these somewhere, like all models that were ever produced during the 17th-19th century or something? Would be even better if it had custom search parameters such as number of barrels and so on but not a must

Cva isn't make old style guns as far as I know. Just inlines.
My BP funz.
The flintlocks are traditions.
The revolver is Armi San Marco.

They have plenty of books about antique guns.
More importantly get pic related.
So you don't blow up your first gun.
It covers powder loads and whatnot.
Basically everything you'll need to know to start.
No reproductions marked Japan or Spain
What's wrong Spanish and Japanese guns?
Who do you thing was making them the first time around?

Had a fried with a pair of Jukar derringers that shoots them when assholes pelt him with brass and they seem to work fine. Though it is percussion and apparently more things need to go right with Flintlocks ie. the frizzen needs to be properly hardened and the springs need to be strong enough to make a spark
