First muzzleloader
Im thinking of getting into blackpowder, particularly for hunting. I would especially like to get a traditional sidelock. Any recommendations for a first one?

Recently got this Finnish M39. Receiver is marked with the year 1967. Bore is mirror perfect. I took it out of the stock tonight, and it turns out, the receiver is 1899 Tula manufacture. Bolt is also, pre-1928 Tula. Most interesting piece is that the magazine well is Remington-made. This rifle's pieces have certainly been places!
Thinking of getting this one. What can you guys tell me about the markings and potential value? Also comes with an extra barrel.
Was just gifted this Mosin. Believe it is Finnish? Not really sure of much of the other details.
