    Question about Loyalist Arms and Repairs

    I owned a Heritage Arms long land pattern musket & after refinishing the stock & tuning the lock, it served me well through a number of years reenacting F&I. I proofed it using heavy powder charges & ball. I believe they overbuild these guns, so they safe. I sold it to another reenactor, who is...

    Pedersoli Indian Trade Musket questions

    According to an email from Pedersoli cust. service, they use a hot chemical bath not unlike a hot bluing bath to brown their barrels. It’s not paint or epoxy.

    Pedersoli Brown Finish

    This is not factual. Pedersoli cust service emailed the browning process they utilize. Its a hot chemical bath like a hot bluing process but takes a little longer. I asked about my Rocky Moutain Hawken brown.
