Nice! I have a parker hale P53 repro which is a blast to shoot. Way better than cap and ball revolvers, so much work for so little gain.

Are they all shoot-able still?

I believe they are all shootable. BUT --I will not be shooting them.

I still shoot my 1858-made Robert T Pritchett Volunteer rifle, but that's the oldest rifle I have.

My late Father and I used to shoot these two guns back in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

I hunt every Dec. with my 1841 Model Mississippi Rifle. It's a Remington 1851 dated 54 cal.
But I also own much older....
