Looks good does it throw lots of sparks? Are you going to drill out the flash hole? If not do yourself a favor and get one of these

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

It sparks pretty good. I’ll see how it goes on weekend. Looks like it has a touch hole liner.

Yup they do but your ignition will be better with a little larger hole than is in that liner.

We’ll see. Changed out front sight to brass one I like. Changed ramrod for hickory one.

Yup I like the brass front sights also. Pedersoli tends to put to thick of front sight on their guns for my liking

That is truly a great looking rifle. You really aren't going to get it dirty are you?
