    coon fat for tallow?

    I've rendered beaver fat. It doesn't store well. I have commercial mink oil. It hasn't gone rancid or cloudy after 8 years. Mink Oil was used in cosmetics for decades

    Looking for Someone to Re-Bore a Barrel

    Mystery flintlock - need some advice.

    As per my previous post, please see some better pics. Please notice the offset between the lock and the frizzen - and oversized flint is the only way for this to make a spark. By best guess is that the hammer has been replaced. What is the make and model of this lock? If I know that I can...
