Further looking found a few places that did put together a kit to build them, but they were a lot more expensive than used to be. And I can't remember where, but there was someone making a kit for the Baker rifle, much more expensive.*
Which is still something I feel a need for a good flintlock rifle. For some reason, that desire is still there.
One of these days I need to find a barrel, there's a Remington rolling block receiver I'd like to complete. But a good barrel... finished barrels I could not find. And a blank, especially counting the machine time to have it chambered, and the shank threaded and so forth, that's expensive.
*Considering the features and parts, not unexpected.
