I know the feeling so you're not alone...I've never been so taken with any hobby in my life as I have with Flintlocks...I keep thinking the shine will wear off but I'm in my 6th year now of exclusively shooting and hunting Flintlocks, have been accumulating them along the way, with no end in sight...sold off several centerfire pumps, autos, and levers, plus a special purpose rifled slug shotgun...haven't used any of them for 15+ years...makes the Flintlock expansion painless
