Ordered my doglock musket in. 69 caliber w/42" barrel on the 4th of JuJuly, which was a Saturday. It arrived on Monday, on the 13th.
This is the first time I've not only ordered a muzzloader that was not made by a professional maker, it's the first time I've ordered anything from this company.
My musket was packaged very well. After opening the box the first part I saw was the unique doglock and how well it was made, and the test of the musket was of the same quality.
I am one of those picky and particular guys when it comes to correct period stuff, especially my flintlocks.
I've always only had only hand made forelocks made by well known makers, but after researching several companies I decided to take a chance with The Discriminating General.
I've always been partial to early English doglock muskets.
I thought is this musket looks as good as it did in the promo. Photo, I'll be way ahead because of the excellent price alone.
To say I was pleased at what I observed and handled would be an understatement.
The fit and finish was as nice about on par with my $2000 dollar custom made Dublin Castle musket made by a well known American builder.
Looking very much forward to drilling the touch hole and seeing how it shoots.
When I do, I'll write another review on how it preformed.
Thank you all for making such fine products available for such amazing prices.
Can't wait to show my fellow reenacting friends.
I'll be doing business with this fine company again.
