  • Charleville restoration

    I have a repro 1777 Charleville flintlock I would like to have restored as a percussion weapon.
    I called John Zimmerman but must have caught him when he was having one of his famous snits and got frustrated with his conversation.
    Anyone know of a gunsmith capable of tackling this project?

    There is a conversion you can do that will still retain your flinter and still have it percussion and being able to switch back and forth. I know this guy had a kit to do it, Jim Chochole is his name and his email is Anteekguy97@aol.com.

      Do let me know if that was any help and if he still has his kits.
