    TVM Fowler Pictures Please

    I have become pretty much hooked on flintlocks and have been shooting a .54 GPR which is very dependable, but I am ready to move up, although I am primarily a deer hunter I do enjoy small game and as most of my shots at deer are less than 50 yds a fowler seems like the way to go. I like the...

    I took my flinter out to the range

    Flintlocks are so much fun, I am shooting a .54 GPR and thanks to past advise on this site it is real dependable. I have found myself having another rifle and gear packed up for the range only to last minute put it away and grab the flinter, at this point I might as well accept that I do not...

    The GPR is a good rifle and there is a lot of sound advice here , I installed the RMC liner right after I built it as my first flintlock a CVA type from a Deer Creek kit gave me problems until I drilled out and coned the touch hole. Mine is a .54 I use a main charge of 2F Goex and prime with...

    GPR first range session

    I have only been shooting flintlocks for about 2 years but have my .54 GPR, which I built from a kit, pretty much 100% reliable if it does not go off either my flint is beat or I got the bore damp running a cleaning patch. As others have mentioned the RMC liner works great, my main charge is 2F...

    what's your gun's name?

    I call my .54 GPR flinter, "Bear Grease" named after Friederich Gerstacker's hound in the book "Wild Sports" I have not named my other rifles but no doubt will when one seems to present itself.

    Lyman Flintlocks

    Yes, just remove the old liner and the RMC will thread in, I use Gorrilla Grease on the threads for future removal, it seems that the hex hole acts like the exterior coning shown in the earlier posts which is a definite plus.

    Lyman Flintlocks

    Lyman Flintlocks
