i was looking around the vacant house next to my cousins and found a flintlock pistol that i think is real but i'm not sure.

if you take it into a gunstore you might be able to get it looked at. if it is real you just hit the jackpot. ive seen flintlocks go for 100- 3000 dollars depending on who made it and when it was made. good luck. (:

couple days. i used a 2x4 for the wooded parts, a piece of metal for the "flintlock", and a 1" copper tube for the barrel. i used a belt sander, a reciprocating saw, and a dremel
