RE: Sidelocks
I know what you mean. Ido not have an inline but don't have anything against them. I just like conventional I guess. It seems to be more of a challenge as well.

RE: Sidelocks
As you already see Spudrow, you're certainly not alone in your affection for sidelocks. My collection includes one in-line and a half-dozen sidelocks. I like them all, even like my(sshhh!) cartridge guns. But I would never tell the others that I love the sidelocks more, even though I do.

RE: Sidelocks
The words "Inline" and "sabot" to me are blasphemy... I currently have a T/C White Mountain Carbine which was a birthday present from my parents a couple of decades back, A Lyman GPR I built last winter and I am currently awaiting the arrival of my Pre-Rev Pennsylvania Flintlock Kit from Pecatonica River, I went all out on this kit... I cannot wait... It's a long winter in Michigan...

RE: Sidelocks
I love my sabot shootin inlines but I still get a kick from my sidelocks.
Lyman GPH .50 shooting a Bullshop 460gr conical atop 80gr of Goex 2F and a Lyman GPR .54 flintlock with 1 in 60 twist for rb's. I need to play with the flinter a little more. I got sidetracked last year due to work.
