American Pistol Kit

This kit has everything to make a very nice 18th century American style pistol.

 

This is a new kit I am producing here in the shop. My plan is to keep a few on hand, ready to ship.

 

The wood is a premium piece of figured maple or walnut inlet for the barrel and drilled for the ramrod. The barrel is a Rice swamped 10" long in .50 or .54 caliber. The breech plug is installed. The dovetails are cut for the sights and tennon. It has a 1-20 twist to the rifling. The flintlock is a small Siler by Jim Chambers. The hardware is cast soft brass and sheet brass. All parts, pins and screws are included. This stock is my design and feels more comfortable in the hand than any of the other kits available.

 

Choose your caliber and type of wood.

Percussion version is available if requested. Contact me for availability.

No other options are available.

 

I have .54 and .50 kits in stock ready to ship.

 

$580  complete kit

     

 

 

For those who want to pick their own parts you can get the basic kit. Includes lock, stock and barrel, no other parts are included or inlet.

 

$395 basic kit

Below is a pistol built from one of the kits.

This one is in .54 caliber and has a walnut stock stained dark.

I chose to add some engraving. You might also add some carving around the tang and lock panels. Also it looks great plain.
