The Rifle Shoppe, http://www.therifleshoppe.com/ (that is if the site isn't down) In Canada, as Brian said, Loyalist Arms. http://www.loyalistarms.freeservers.com/flintlockmatchlocketcmuskets.html You can shoot right out of the box. Any other Canadian ones, you will have to drill the touch hole and probably have to get the lock tuned.

Marstar sell the Pedersoli line and I believe they have Brown Bess copies... These are well made guns (at least the ones I have tried a couple of years ago!)

probably if you want one that is for serious shooting, a pederzolli is better. if you want one that shoots, as well as looks the part correctly, loyalist. im about half way through a kit from loyalist, a first model sea service. looking good, going together tomorow i think, for a test fit, maybe a test fireing

 

[Scarecrow]

I have heard from friends who know that the BB's from Nepal are not in good shape...and should not be fired. I have a 75 cal. mould and can make balls. The killer is the postage. Funny...I tried to buy 75 cal. balls from a firm in the U.S. and they wouldn't send them as they are prohibited from export....figure that! Dave

I Would Not Buy Anything From Ima As Original. You Wouldnt Be Able To Shoot It

Yah shooting a bess is all the fun, I couldnt just go for a wall hanger. So does someone carry these lead balls in Canada? Is there a period correct set of loading instruments to buy aswell?
