antique styled anyone?

any one have ideas on making an antique styled gun? meaning a flint or matchlock exterior over the normal pistol innards. I'm thinking you can use the flashpan as a hopper, maybe use the hammer to pull back a spring for a spring pistol?

Flintlocks dont work that way at all. So the quick answer is no. Airsoft is at least 19th century on up. Some do 'cowboy' style shooting, but the guns are extremely rare and their cost is not really worth it.

At that point you are better off using real guns at a real range, or get into black-powder historical reenactments. Google should help you locate many groups that do it.

use the other hand to pull back the hammer? or is that occupied with your "other" shooter?
