EuroArms Kentuckian .44?

[j23]

..I've got a chance to pick up a flintlock EuroArms Kentuckian in a complicated trade... I know nothing about them and Google results are sparse. From what I can tell, it was made in Italy in the 70's.

Anyone have any experience with them? Are they shooters?

Thanks!

They look nice, but quality is so-so.

Don't get into it very deep.

Parts are also impossible to find, I have an euro arms new model army .44 and the 2 times stuff has broke I've had to either modify the part or the gun. Also I can't seem to find a nipple that will fit.

I just got a hold of one too.
I was wondering if a 200ish gr. Pistol bullet would work if adequately sized and lubed.
I'm thinking along the lines of Lyman #452460, #452374, or maybe even #452374, #452664
Any thoughts?
