Thanks, excellent video. I have a .45 Kibler SMR kit still in the box. I got just before I had a significant shoulder injury last Spring. I'll finally get it together and git it to the range soon.

Nice rifle Garrett! Really enjoyed watching you sight it in. I've got a Kibler SMR on the workbench along with another rifle I'm building. I will get them finished one of these days and shoot some videos of the first shots. Keep the great videos coming! Keep your flint sharp, your priming dry, and stay free! TC

thankyou so much. i was really hoping you would see this as you are sorta a master builder. i cant wait to see your upcoming videos i know you will love yours as much as we love ours.

One of us ought to do a video about finding and knapping our own flints. At the moment my Harpers Ferry has a piece of relatively raw Idaho jasper that I picked up from a creek bed. Not even actually knapped for the initial 20 +/- shots. Since then I did sharpen it up a bit. But it's still shooting flawlessly after another several shots. I LOVE flintlock rifles.

A flintlock isn’t a bad idea in these days when caps are nowhere to be found. In fact I’ve been shooting mostly my cartridge guns in order to save my caps. That’s the exact opposite of during Covid when I could only find caps and not cartridge ammunition. Great video, thanks for sharing!
