    KY deer season 2020

    I was quite unsuccessful on my hunt this year as was last. I have tried everything that is legal from salt blocks to apple molasses bait blocks to not even see any deer. I am not here to complain however. I have very mountainous eastern KY property with a river close by but on others land and a...

    Set triggers spooking game?

    I built the kit last year and I can say you are not wrong, that trigger is horrible and the set seems to do nothing to decrease the pull even with it backed all the way down to lightest possible.

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    Shot about 20 rounds through her and her baby teeth (new rifling as it's a new barrel) are cutting patches and the aluminum range rod. Not much in the highlands of Eastern My past 25 yards so I was shooting about that. One flyer with all off hand besides that flyer they were all dead deer had...

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    Ha you would be correct but my favorite color has nothing to do with genetics because I'm also French, Polish, and Austrian.

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    There she is. I have cheekily named her "Chloroblast for obvious reasons. Some would say she's ugly and she is definitely in no way anything but contemporary.

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    Well she is complete. I think I'm going to make her "chloroblast.". I need to sight her in and maybe do some more polishing. Lots of mistakes and a pin that I had to manufacturers a nail but it's together. I did not get a chance before dark on Sunday to even attempt to get it out. It is by...

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    So the terrible instructions Pedersoli didn't even include kind of messed me up. The instructions show a picture, and that's all the instructions are just a set of terrible line drawings, of filing the barrel dovetail to fit the sights you I'm sure have figured out where this is going. The...

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    Not sure anyone really is watching this but I got the pins drifted out. Thanks Zonie. I have to say that brass nose cap really wanted to keep that pin. I was not enjoying beating the snot out of that drift to get it out but no damage to pin or nose cap. To the start of a new adventure I guess...

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    Thank you still awaiting a reply. Now for folks who have done this before because this is my first build would it be possible to drift those pins out to get the barrel off? I would like to brown it. Or would leaving the blued under barrel and masking taping the wood to strip and brown what is...

    Pedersoli carbine kit

    I purchased this "kit.". And I understand it's a beginner skill level but not was I expecting more. The gun is completely together already barrel blues and all parts pinned. The only things to do in this "kit" are to put the sites on and sand the stock although there might be more to it because...

    Sideslapper

    In thinking about doing my first build starting with a kit but I am intrigued by the sidestepper lock. How hard would it be for a novice to adjust a kit to fit the track the wolf sideslapper lock?

    Pa born KY by marriage

    Long time lurker. I am still going through the years of pictures in the thread and have made it to January 2011. Lamenting some of the links are now bad. I have a lot to learn and may have a nugget to share. I am hoping to get a deer with my Leman trade rifle this year but blue tongue seems...
