I recently got the urge to build a black powder pistol kit of some kind. I looked at some of the Classic Arms derringer kits and other kits Dixie Gun Works sells. I am probibly not going to shoot the gun much, I want to try my hand at making something that is not a total loss if I mess up. If you have an old kit sitting around gathering dust and the price is right shoot me an email please.
Thanks, foggy

I have built several kits from Dixie Gun Works. I greatly recommend their 1851 Navy steel frame .36 caliber kit made by Pietta. The internals are already fitted and functional, all the parts fit together, all you have to do is smooth out the exterior metal and wood and apply the finish of your choice. Plus, the price ($175) is pretty reasonable.
