Lyman GP Rifle

[Scout]

I built a Lyman GP caplock rifle from a kit about 15 years ago and is one of my favorites. It's all browned furniture and is a .54 cal RH.
My question is where can I get a flintlock barrel and lock that will fit it in the same caliber? The Lyman website with parts seems a bit confusing as far as the ordering goes. Is there another barrel and lock that will fit this application besides the ones from Lyman? Also what about a nice maple stock with some curl too thats already carved and inletted. I'm not up to trying my hand at that yet.

Thanks for any info you can give me as I'm a noobie to this site.

Did you try Track of the Wolf?  I believe they can modify the Green Mountain T/C drop-in barrels for use in a GPR, or so it says here: http://www.trackofthewolf.com/Categories/TableList.aspx?catID=14&subID=142&styleID=491  They should also have a replacement (flint) lock for it, here: http://www.trackofthewolf.com/Categories/partDetail.aspx?catId=14&subId=148&styleId=577&partNum=LOCK-LR-05-F

Don't know about stock, -- it may be that a T/C or Investarms stock will work -- you can ask them.

Try Midsouth Shooters Supply for barrels. Track of the Wolf for locks.

One more question, will the flintlock and the flint barrel just "drop in" my caplock stock?

Sure, but there is no guarantee that the lock will line up properly with the touch hole.

Scout, basically you want a new barrel, a new lock and a new stock. GPR's are a great choice as a production gun but sounds like you're reading to move on.

Now when you put it that way, isn't there an old saying or something, "lock, stock and barrel?" .

Why don't you give lyman a shout? They have always treated me right and answered any  questions I had. Frank
