    I ordered this during Kiblers pre-order back in May. Assembled the kit as most have done in 5-6 hours. Finish and carving took significantly more time. Rifle is 54 caliber. Stock is a standard grade sugar maple stock with some heart wood showing at the wrist and on the fore end. Finished the...

Put the barrel keys in from the side plate side as was done originally. I coned my muzzle as the originals. Did you...

    TRS M1776 Rifle

    Springfield I have built one of TRS 1776 rifle kit. It is not a beginners build. As to how they shoot it is a wonderful rifle to carry and shoot. I use this as my hunting rifle and packs a good punch. Very easy on the shoulder as long as you use 80 to 85 grains 3f. Higher loads start to become a...

    Woodsrunner arrived today

    Bnew, I am jealous! I have a .54 coming with a fancy sugar maple stock. I am number 20 on the list so maybe a nice Christmas present is on the way to me. Can't wait to see how yours comes out. That is impressive that it comes pretty much assembled, just needing finishing. You will have to add...

    Rare Revolutionary War Flintlock Rifle

    This is for Dave, I saw this on the Cowan auction sight where there are better photos. The lock does not fit the inlet, the top jaw and screw are from a different lock, on the inside of the lock the sear spring and main spring are not ordnance parts. The barrel proof marks and stampings do not...

    Anyone have a TRS Baker flintlock rifle?

    The baker is a continuation in development of the British pattern 1776 rifle. The pattern 1776 was developed during the AWI by the British and used throughout the war.

    Hunting in the rain

    Cows knee, keep tucked under your arm or under coat, change prime often. Main point is to keep it out of the direct rain as much as possible. Cow knee works the best but just make sure to always have the knee opening facing down. Do not prime with 4f in the rain!
