Seeking information on my flintlock

[Moose49017]

I purchased this LH 40 cal. Flintlock years ago at The Kalamazoo Living History show.
I don't know if it was a kit or not. I belive the maker was a guy named Tom Wilson.

It's 50" overall with a 35" Green mountain barrel and according to the tag a Siler lock.
It was a quick purchase.  It was LH, 40 cal, good looking and fit me. So I grabbed it.
I now want to know more about what I have. But can't afford the books yet.
But I do want to make a pouch to go with it so I'm trying to get an idea.

Does it fall somewhere between 1780 - 1830?
Would you call it Golden Era?
Does it line up with any particular Schools? Or is it just a fantasy gun?
Any help at all would be appreciated.
Thanks

It’s got a mix of parts from different decades. I’d say it’s a creative piece and looks well put together and well finished. Given the curve of the buttplate and the patchbox style, post-1800.

With the short trigger pull and light barrel I suspect this was made for a lady or youth shooter.

Stock looks like it has a lot of drop in it, at least it appears so in the pictures. Almost looks like a pre-carved southern mountain stock, with more drop and a high comb, that was adapted to a contemporary Pennsylvania style rifle build. Gun looks fairly traditional, except for the patch box. And maybe the side plate, which are contemporary.  General vibe, otherwise, is 1795 - 1815, my 2 cents.

I appreciate everyone's thoughts.
Gives me a direction to look.
The gentleman I bought it from was short and of slight build. So that all lines up.
I have short arms and an old neck/back injury. It seemed to fit me good and I liked the weight.
Yea, what's up with that patch box?
Never seen another like it.

The only thing I can tell you about your rifle is that it's a very fine one.

Very attractive wood and excellent craftsmanship, but what a weird patch box...

I added a few more pictures of the patch box. Shows the release button between two screw heads. Etc.
