Only after you find that 30" rifle to go with them. and you should probably locate a 10 gauge double as well.

If it's hardened properly it shouldn't. The flints typically need replacement or sharpened every 100-150 shots though; that's with a quality flint.

I can't say that I've ever heard anyone describe you as being in your right mind

It sounds normal to me. Have you been to any matches and picked up or looked at any spent brass? There's going to be some blowback, especially with straight wall cases like .38 and .45; this is where the black/smoke is coming from. The "scratch" is likely either the case rubbing the chamber as it is pulled out; the extractor pulls the case mouth up as the bolt comes back. The out of round might be an issue, might also be an optical illusion or could be from a little too much pressure in the rounds; what ammo were you shooting?

Might find more information here: https://americanlongrifles.org/forum/index.php From my limited experience frizzens are supposed to be hardened with heat treatment; sounds like the one you have didn't get hard enough to begin with. I've thus far put together a couple of kits, but the locks came from Chambers and the frizzens are about as good as it gets.

Definitely fooled me, I thought they were Justin's or some kinda cowboy boot last time I saw them.

Agree 100% Had a classmate get his similar truck hung on a speedbump in front of Walmart. No we did not pull him off of it with our REAL trucks. Fortunately the tow truck driver felt sorry for him and didn't charge him anything.

I'm calling the costume Nazi's on you; those things have zippers and just not allowed... I'm kidding by the way. Jeans in general, carpenters pants, even bib overalls are fine.

Practiscore has match templates that makes it a lot like ACES.

And he's my best customer

No they're terrible, but I tell you what; I'll give you your money back and you can buy some New Model Vaqueros. I'm kidding of course, that's an awesome deal on a great set of guns for this game. Welcome and get yourself to a match before you buy anything else.

He's gonna be off wasting his money somewhere, seems like he mentioned a 3 hour tour and maybe buying a case of Swisher Sweets; just can't remember at the moment Free bump.

Hello and welcome to the best game there is. Best thing you can do is go to a match ASAP, you will get most of your questions answered there. 1. Yes, but you'll have to borrow the rest of the guns needed. 2. Quick Draw is NOT Cowboy Action. 3. Yes .45 is one of the many allowed calibers. 4. Yes, lot's of folks shoot the variations of .44; Mag, Special, and Russian. 5. Expense is relative. It's no more expensive than golf and cheaper than competitive racing or tournament bass fishing. Again, get yourself to a match..
