Here's a picture of the pistol I bought several months ago.
It's a Le Page ML pistol manufactured by Armi Sport in Caliber .45.
I will pick it up in Germany next week.
I will post better pictures when I'm back and soon after that some range reports.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Martin

That's right Duncan.
I'm very eager to take this pistol to the range.
Ever since I bought the Hawken Woodsman I’m hooked.
I get the feeling that this will not be my last muzzle loader.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Martin

My wife just read your post and she said she would help me........
Thanks Duncan.

Had a lucky day too.
Picked this one up this weekend.
Range report next week.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Martin
BTW....that is one fantastic looking flint lock Duncan.
When will you take the pistol to the range?

I hope to shoot it on Wednesday Martin. I spent this afternoon making a loading stand for it.
I think it needs a slight mod to hold the pistol in the vertical more securely so further pics to come when I have done it.

Good idea Duncan. Reminded me of one I built for revolvers years ago. Took me a while to find it but I took a few snaps to show what it's like.
The LePage won't fit on it at all.
