    Ramrod question...

    I like to keep the jag on the end because as Deerstalkert pointed out it makes it easier to grab. The downside is I have snapped the ends off of several of through the years when the wet heavy grass in the cattle fields catches ahod of them so you have to be a little more careful how you are...

    FOR SALE .54 Cal Hawken Rifle for Sale: Link

    I wonder if this is being offered from the exclusive collection from that Nigerian Prince that used to want to help me out by sending me $80,000 because he was in a bind?

    Colonial on its way...

    I really liked the carving on your wooden patch box. I have been watching this thread and think you are going a real nice job with it. I'm very interested to see everything finished so you can go out and make some smoke.

    Joe Martin aka Candle Snuffer done gone under

    The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil...

    Pedersoli Upgrades?

    In my opinion what a lot of folks are trying to relay is it's not the speed of the hammer dropping it's the ignition that counts. I'll elaborate. It can take any determined amount of time from when you pull the trigger to when the flint hits the steel. Nothing in between is going to happen until...

    Deep river rifle

    I will publically make a very unselfish offer. Send that rifle my way and I would be glad to take it out and do some shooting and report my scientific findings. I will also graciously offer a free cleaning service after each time I take it. Heck, I will even throw free storage space in a climate...

    my new pistol

    I agree, it was really nice seeing him take such a liking to my son. When we would travel to a Rendezvous we knew there were always eyes on him out of our sight. We would get daily reports about what he was up to and the things he was doing during the day. I remember in the early mornings he...

    my new pistol

    She certainly does shoot beautifully. The lock is fast and sparks great. I could tell from the beginning this pistol was crafted by someone who really knew what they were doing. Years ago the man who sold it to me did so on the caveat of he didn't care how much I sent him each month as long as I...

    NRA "Voting"

    I've been a life member for about 20 years now if I could guess. I bought my son a Jr. Life that turned in the adult Life when he turned 18. When I get the ballot unless there is someone I recognize and know their track record it is very difficult for me to know whom I should be voting for based...

    my new pistol

    I have one of those that looks strikingly similar in flintlock and smoothbore .54 The signature is the same as is the turtle front sight coinciding with other similarities. I never knew who made it because I bought it from an elderly man at a shoot. I'll see if I can't haul it out and give a...

    Pistol for edc?

    I love mine! I would have zero desire to be on the business end of that. Most just comment on what an interesting walking stick it is. A pleasant smile and nod of the head is the general response.

    Flint to frizzen angle?

    As some others have noted it looks to be hitting the frizzen a bit too squarely for my liking. From that angle I think it would be awfully hard of that flint and the frizzen carving out some deep groves that may need to be addressed later. It might just be me but that flint seems to have a lot...

    Pyrodex?

    Years ago a friend gave me a pound of Pyrodex. It worked fine in percussion's and was hit and miss in the Flintlocks. Since then the Pyrodex has clumped together rather quickly into a tennis ball inside the can. I can always break it out and smooth it up back to a useable substance in a pinch...
