I really like the looks of the Lyman Flintlock Deerstalker Rifle except for the short, 24 inch barrel.
Do you all know if a barrel from the Trade Rifle or Great Plains Hunter Rifle can be installed easily onto the Deerstalker?

Well, my GPH barrel has two wedges, not one. So not sure if either would line up with the Deerstalker.
Thanks C.B.,
You make a Great point. As soon as I read it I went to https://www.lymanproducts.com/lyman-trade-rifle
and checked for wedges in the Trade Rifle. It has ONE. So maybe the Trade Rifle's barrel can be installed
onto the Deerstalker. https://www.lymanproducts.com/brands...rstalker-rifle! I'll call the company on May
2, Monday, and ask.
I would also measure the width of the barrel as well, if one is an inch across the flats as opposed to 7/8 ths it won't fit the stock.
I don't know if they still make them but Green Mountain use to have replacement barrels for Lymans and T/C's. Maybe you could find one of them.
Thank you all for the responses!
