    Southpaw percussion, Invest Arms and no other?

    I was hoping that someone could tell me how difficult these rifles are to build. My brother and his son want a kit in LH.

    Southpaw percussion, Invest Arms and no other?

    I believe that Jededia Trading Post offers 4 or 5 left handed flintlock rifle kits. One is the Gemmler Hawken and there are 3 or 4 longrifles.

    What do you hunt with your traditional muzzleloader?

    I’ve only hunted deer. Got a .54 renegade percussion in the 80’s.. I think. Hunted with it some, especially in primitive season, but mostly it lived in the gun safe. Then was given a flintlock, and I love shooting this gun! Am looking to build a Kibler SMR to hunt deer this year. Too bad I’m...

    Kibler .40 SMR order

    Is 50 yards a typical distance for a flintlock? It seems that most you tube videos are 50 yards as well. It there a loss in accuracy on longer shots, like 100?

    Hello All

    Thank you. Ahhh ducks were safe from me, never saw any close enough to shoot, but there were a few pheasants that I lost arrows to. So, you shoot a .40 cal?

    Hello All

    Hello All, I’ve been hunter since I was 12- nearly 50 years back. Started with a Bear bow, rabbits mostly. Bought a T/C Hawken .54 percussion and hunted with it for many years. My brother also gave me his .50 T/C Hawkin flintlock, but I never shot it. Recently I bought a Kibler Southern...
