    The Feldflasche Canteen from GGGodwin

    Yeah, I had to chase after them for an order. They need to advise people when things aren't in stock. To take money for goods advertised but not available is false advertising and possibly fraud. I got everything I ordered, but I will never use them again.

    FOR SALE Hodgdon Triple Seven 777

    Even if it was allowed, it's one item per listing, unless all 7 cans was one lot.

    You're in the minority. And have you tried asking Godwin?

    Does anybody recognize this stock marking?

    This is under the buttplate of a modern flintlock trade gun. The barrel is marked Made in Belgium but has British proof marks, so I don't know where the stock was made. Anyone have an idea?

    Maintaining stock with carving ?

    A soft towel with a thick nap is the best for buffing wax. A very soft brush may help in crevices.

    Question About Lighting

    I saw a pic of an autobody shop with 12 or 16 overhead fixtures, in a grid pattern, all on independent switches. The light can be directed from any angle to highlight details as needed. You definitely have the right approach.

    Why no black powder hunting personalities

    TV shows are about advertising. Hunting and fishing shows are about sponsors pushing the latest gear. What gear would a black powder themed show support?

    Anyone ever seen or used this Patch Lube?

    It could simply be beeswax and Crisco in something like a 60-40 blend.

    What would you build?

    There's something appealing about the half stock rifles of the 1820-40 era. They generally had longer barrels than later "mountain" guns, with 33" being in the range of minimum length. I really like the overall lines.

    Hello from the Hudson Valley

    My parents were from Maine, summer vacations were always visiting family. We kept saying "some day..." until the opportunity became real. Took me 54 years, but I made it!

    What exactly are you cutting down? The barrel? Why not just get a Hawken style gun?
