    WITHDRAWN Pedersoli Frontier Flintlock Lock

    The flintlock is a horrendious flint eater on these guns. Spark, yes, but maybe 15-20 shots a flint. I have the lock but on a different lockplate from a salvage build. You could easily cut the plate to size and case harden it. A word of warning: Your patent breech on this rifle is not built for...

    SOLD WTS Curly Maple Folwer, 62 Cal

    What's the Length of pull?

    Anyone know where I can get a .62 cal rifle built ?

    I just bought a 46", 62 cal. Swamped barrel Barrel at another forum. Barrel is from Bob Burton (FCI barrels) and is coned at the muzzle by the barrel maker. A rifle always starts with a barrel, the rest is comparatively easy. Large queen ann lock will probably go well with it or a larger early...

    New to the forum and Muzzleloading and I need some help with a Rifle decision.

    @OP: What really helps as well, is building some cardboard guns. You can easily adjust dimension on them by cutting off or gluing on stuff. It will give you a good idea about LOP, drop at heel and cast-off for your body structure. Also, the length will give you an indication if this gun will be...

    New to the forum and Muzzleloading and I need some help with a Rifle decision.

    Why would one shoot small bore canon and pistols before shooting a rifle? What is shooting blanks gain you? Right. Nothing. Waste of powder unless you foul your barrel before a match with no sighting shots allowed.

    New to the forum and Muzzleloading and I need some help with a Rifle decision.

    The most important part if you plan to hunt with the rifle is the LOP. What you can easily shoot with a T-Shirt on and what can easily be shot with thick winter clothes on is not always the same. Most of the rifles built from kits are all 14" LOP. For a lot of people that works well, for others...

    Sorry, I overread that in the OT posts in between. Unfortunately too long for my short arms.

    SOLD .54 Caliber Flintlock

    Can you please measure the Length of Pull? Trigger in cocked full cocked position to center of butt plate? This is an important measure for flint shooters, especially if you hunt. Too long a length of pull with a thick coat on and you will throw your shots. May also be nice to show where the...

    WANTED Found it! Please delete!

    I got much more what I asked from one of the forum members. Everything worked out fine! Thanks to everyone who reacted to this wanted ad and offered a rifle to buy. This wanted ad can be deleted!

    A fellow forum member made a very generous offer. If this works out all right, I will have gotten much better than what I asked for. We need to get more kids into shooting traditional black powder guns.

    First attempted using Schuetzen 3fg

    I shoot Schuetzen Reenactment powder mostly while it was cheap. Now will change back to sporting powder. No different than Goex imho. I don't like Swiss but Null B. Too much graphite build up which is hard and too expensive. Consistent bore only works with quick wiping between shots, because of...

    I look for a servicable CVA or Traditions Frontier, Bobcat or Kentucky in percussion, for a youngster. A single mom whose son expressed an interest in muzzleloading asked me about a rifle. Her son hunts with archery equipment and a 20 gauge unmentionable. So, a smokepole is missing 😁 Maybe there...

    Trent Wren passing

    Very sad to hear of Trent's passing. We shot plenty of times on the forum woodswalk and also at the Running Boar Range when he was running it. My thooughts are with his family and loved ones!

    replacing lock on Pedersoli Kentucky

    For Heavens Sake, get a Chambers gunsmith lock with the square plate and saw/file the plate to fit the gun with the pan ending in the right location. You may have to deepen some area of your lock mortise slightly, but this is not rocket science. And get a new trigger with an oversized trigger...
