    P. Bondini, J.S.Hawken percussion pistol

    Mr. Ford, As I suspected sir....You are a gentleman and a scholar! (There are damn few of us left!!)

    P. Bondini, J.S.Hawken percussion pistol

    Mr. Ford, You are indeed a kind and decent soul. Your offer to relieve me of the burden of ownership of my new acquisition truly humbles me. I'm afraid I'm burdened by a deep-seated need to punish myself for shooting lower quality firearms all these years and, in an act that can only be referred...

    P. Bondini, J.S.Hawken percussion pistol

    Thanks B-man! It appears, even in the posts on the forum, there just isn't a lot known. Great place to start though!

    P. Bondini, J.S.Hawken percussion pistol

    Once again I turn to my Blackpowder Brothers on the forum for information. I just acquired a percussion pistol, .54 cal J.S.Hawken made by P.Bondini in Italy. It is one of the most beautiful BP pistols I've ever seen. Unfortunately, I've been unable to find out much about it on the Internet. I...

    Green River Rifle Works Leman Trade Gun

    Just got back from out of town. I have not had a chance to count the lands and grooves but the serial number would put it in the range of a Douglas barrel. The photo is one I found on the Internet but mine looks exactly like it. The only difference is the guy I bought it from replaced the...

    Green River Rifle Works Leman Trade Gun

    I recently got a Green River Rifle Works Leman Trade gun in .58 cal. It has a low serial number...under 600. I've done a little research on GRRW but was wondering if anyone on the forum knows much about them. What is the rate of twist? Will it shoot balls and conicals? How do they rate as...

    U.S. Civil War Sergeant's Enfield Rifle Combination Tool

    I recently bought a replica Sergeants tool for my Parker Hale Enfield Musketoon. I know what some attachments are for but don't know how to use others?? Any advice for an idiot out there?!?

    WANTED Parker-Hale Enfield Manual

    I have to say addressing someone as "Swampweasel" feels almost disrespectful! So I'll just say Hi Joe- I'm glad you were able to do a deal with the seller. I appreciate you being willing to send a copy to me. I'm always impressed with how generous the forum members are with their time, expertise...

    WANTED Parker-Hale Enfield Manual

    WANTED Parker-Hale Enfield Manual

    I just bought a Parker Hale Enfield too. I found out it was originally sold with a sergeants tool and a manual. I found the tool at International Military Antiques but still need a manual. IF you happen to find one I'd pay for copy of it! Good Luck to both of us!!

    1861 Parker Hale Enfield musketoon 58 caliber rear sight part needed

    Tac...You've been a HUGE help to me! You're right that I want the weapon the way it came from the factory. I may never use the slide for longer shots but it will be complete just in case. And...I'll use a little lock-tite to hold that screw in place. I ended up ordering a slide for an 1853...
