John gets his flintlock rifle kit....

Yep, it came in the mail.... here's me getting it.... (dramatic reenactment)

And opening it.... (overly dramatic reenactment)

And here's what you get.... It all looks pretty well made -- needing only a little minor sanding, polishing up.... This seems at the easy end of the kit spectrum, the "Snap-Tite" idea as opposed to a hunk of iron ore and a log.
