That’s a sweet looking rifle. I have an old cave kit gun that looks a lot like it that was handed down to me many years ago by my long gone mentor

I've won a lot of ribbons and traders bucks with a Lyman Great Plains Rifle.
They're as good as it gets this side of a custom built.

I’m only 40, but my eyes aren’t what they used to be with the front blade on my old hawken. There’s nothing more enjoyable to shoot though.

A Lyman trade rifle was my first muzzleloader. Being in pa and being limited to flintlocks , it's hard to get a good quality starter gun that's not too expensive. Looking back the trade gun was a good gun. Unfortunately, some asshole stole it.

It's almost better to find a good used one, and use those parts.

I have a beautiful stainless ruger old army I bet I haven’t shot in 15 years. I forgot what a hoot that thing is to shoot. I used it to shoot one whitetail and it worked, but I’m not in a hurry to try it again. I’ll never sell it as my dad gave it to me, but man, I can’t believe how much they’re bringing these days
