Shoots great with a classic load, and looks flashy. Great buy.
If that looks gets old, a light stain and satin finish would make it a whole new rifle.

So are you tired of it yet and ready to sell?? 😉
Nice rifle and a shooter too, saw on a shot show thread they also have a featherweight with a similar maple stock. Not sure how great they will be for production wood, but the shot show example was similar to yours. Nice buy there

Wow what?
How many flintlocks have you seen the same shade as this M70?
