Has anyone had any experience with Buck Ridge Flintlocks, quality, function etc?
Thinking of trying one.

Been planning to try one of those myself....and a set of the southern triggers. There are quite a few threads and a few guns built with that lock you can find on here. Just look up "Rice Nock Lock"

I've built several guns using this lock, including my own personal rifle. This is a high quality lock. These spark great and function flawlessly. My next scheduled build will use the pointed tail version. And another plus is that should you have a problem, Liston Rice will definitely stand behind his products.

I got a rifle with what I believed to be a prototype of their lock. I had an issue with it so I contacted Liston. He asked that I mail the lock back to him. It turned out not to be a prototype of his lock but he had the same lock on one of his personal guns. He took that lock off and repaired my lock with it. He mailed it back at no charge and even returned my original postage. If that ain't customer service I don't know what is.
