Would a Flintlock pistol work?

[RyeSalRuff2]

I unfortunately live in a country where firearm purchase is limited (Europe). And while I could maybe apply for the process of getting one I fear that it would take far too long and might not even work.
I do have several other methods at my disposal those being SN and Inert Gas but for the former I just fear the mechanism of death? I'm scared of symptoms I might feel and I don't know if the "air hunger" is also a part of one of them I could probably not go through with it that way.
For the Inert Gas I would definitely manage to mess up the bag process and would be worried of that not working. I am not flexible with my fingers and can't even tie a knot.
So this brings me to my third option. Would that ever work and or would it be reliable? I know I can purchase a Flintlock even if it might be a bit more on the expensive side.

Thanks for any and all responses.

I personally wouldn't, unless you're an expert or preservationist of some sort and already have experience with them. Flintlocks (and most guns pre-percussion cap) were not nearly as reliable as modern firearms. It *could* certainly kill you if it works, but I feel like there's also a big risk it might just blow up in your face and just disfigure you... People already fuck up using modern shotguns.

i do not think a flintlock is a suitable option. if youre set on using a gun, it is not very difficult to manufacture an FGC 9 yourself, it was designed for people in europe that cannot buy firearms and doesn't require any restricted components to manufacture. on odysee there are video tutorials, pdf guides, and cad files for 3d printing parts.
