    Flintlock Rifle Pan Polishing Project - Chambers Siler Lock

    Recommended to me on the range as a means to not only speed up ignition but also make cleanup between rounds significantly easier, especially in the humid Florida weather, Ive decided to remove the Siler lock and polish the pan to a mirror shine. This reduces the surface area to provide for the...

    Cleaning the TVM flintlock with the bolt on flint flush kit

    After returning from the Central Florida Muzzleloaders meeting pre testing of the device, I'd inspect the accumulation of residue and discuss cleaning options as well as what had happened that day out on the field. After attempting to use another method, Ive opted to try the Flint Flush kit by...

    How I clean and service my Hawken rifle

    I put together a video documenting the process I use for cleaning my Hawken which isn't too difficult since its a takedown essentially. Unlike pinned rifles that present other challenges. I'm sure 100 people have 100 ways of doing this. This is mine, and it works. Click here for Youtube video

    Field testing my new TVM Lancaster Lefty Flintlock in .50 Cal

    The bench belongs to a friend. Ideally, Id prefer what one would expect from the non portable variety, having a bag of sand or something as the barrel support and not the fixed swivel post. That said, such a thing could also work with this setup. You lose something when the bench is...

    Here is a video I made of the TVM rifle as id received it in the mail, and opened it. They did a fine job on the preparation for transport, no wonder it was so heavy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enAYrCrUC5g

    Field Testing the switch from Pyrodex to Black powder

    Funny note: This is a left handed, Tradition Hawken .50cal. I bought it at a gun show at a booth operated by a pawn shop. They had assumed it a showpiece (fake) with the lock being on the wrong side and sold it for a hundred bucks. Further inspection, that I did onsite and thereafter found it...
