Charleville Refence Materials

[rescuerandy2]

Good Afternoon. Having gotten hooked on shooting BP rifles, I am getting the urge to move from Dreyse/Chassepot/'63 Springfield to flintlocks. First thought was of course a Brown Bess. However, wanting to keep it a bit more on the Rebel side, I have moved over to considering a Charleville that matchs the timing of the Revolution. Found a great book for the Brown Bess and now would like to find good reference materials, preferably a book, for the Charlevilles. Suggestions please. Thanks, Randy.

There was a good article in the American Rifleman some time back (mid-early double naughts, I think) that described variants of the Charleville. May have been a book excerpt. I have it about the house somewhere.....

Looking forward to the references. Flying blind right now. Thanks, Randy.
