    How to ream cylinders and to what size?

    Ditto on having a knowledgeable professional, with the correct equipment to do the work. Once you calculate the cost of tools, and your time figuring out how to do it and how long it takes you to do it......sure, you may get satisfaction out of doing it yourself...... A good machinist/smith...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Recently purchased a pretty, like new Pietta Starr Double Action revolver through a live auction, a few days ago. Was just sent the invoice and forwarded my info to them, to complete the deal. Sometimes you can get a decent base price, for items, but the Buyer's fee and State sales tax is a...

    Charleville Musket - Which One Used by Continentals?

    I went looking for a repro 1766 Charleville, a couple of years ago, to go with my 1777 Charleville pistol. They were hard to find used. Finally found one on a live auction, through Proxibid......an older Dixie Gun Works marked one. This lot lasted a whole 30seconds,during the auction and I won...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    I have purchased a used, yet probably fired little, if any, Uberti Colt 1862 Pocket Police with a 4.5" barrel. Have always liked these and finally found one. Ended up being the only bidder. Also purchased an original Colt Bullet mould for the.36 Cal Pocket in very good condition with nice...

    1860 Army Detachable Stock fitting

    Hello Black PowderFriends, I have a detachable shoulder stock that is supposed to be for an 1860Army revolver. The problem is that it will not fit onto ANY of the 4 Pietta 1860 Army revolvers that I have. It seems like the inside of the brass on the stock does not match the contour of the...

    WANTED WTB - Pietta Smith Carbine OR Decent Original Smith Carbine

    I was bidding on one, at a live/internet auction, through Proxibid.com. Was a near new Pietta. Hammer dropped before I could click on the "BID NOW" button. Hammer drop was $1,000 plus about a 20% buyer's fee. Still way under full retail. That was a couple of months ago; haven't seen another...

    In Need of Nickel Plating services

    What does that have to do with anything? Not like they have to be plated in the same solution or even by the same process. I just wanted them plated. I didn’t care how.

    In Need of Nickel Plating services

    I made the assumption that the business who is plating my firearm would also plate the flasks! But have learned that they declined to do so.

    In Need of Nickel Plating services

    Hello All, Through my gunsmith, Ford's plating, in Springhill, Fl, is nickel plating a repro Remington New Model Pocket revolver and conversion cylinder for me. However, I've been told that they have declined to nickel plate the two powder flasks that I sent. Do any of y'all know of a business...

    Pietta or Uberti 1858 new model army?

    Pale rider Remington was a cartridge conversion.

    Here is something Ive never seen before

    The "Navy" nomenclature came about from the roll engraving on the cylinder, of the Texas Navy. Not because they might have been specifically meant for the navy. Lots of foot troops used them.

    Do I need a filler for a 20 grain charge in a .44 cal. Cylinder?

    Wouldn't it be more "Manly" and challenging to "win" matches with a full load? Is "winning" the end all objective, to the experience? Never been fixated on "winning".

    WANTED WTB - Pietta Smith Carbine OR Decent Original Smith Carbine

    Pics Pics of the same rifle had different backgrounds, too. Just too unsettling.

    WANTED WTB - Pietta Smith Carbine OR Decent Original Smith Carbine

    Interesting how I can receive pictures of the same rifle from two different people, from supposedly, two different locations. Kinda makes me skeptical of this forum.
