    Enfield Rear Sight

    I mistakenly posted this request in shooting accessories; I think it belongs here. I have an 1862 Tower Rifle, I suppose it would be considered an Enfield. The rear portion of the barrel near the breech has a rectangular sort of mound on which once sat a rear sight. I am in need of such a sight...

    Need Rear Sight, 1862 Enfield

Lyman's ".58 cal mold, 510 Gr. (Item #2651213)" produces a tight fitting Minie Ball that is frighteningly...

    Unidentified Heavy Flintlock 1" Bore

    I am assessing what I presume to be a French Napoleonic Flintlock that I may acquire at an upcoming sale. I'd like to know whether such a caliber as 15/16 of an inch (nearly 1.00) makes sense. The biggest muskets I am aware of were .69 and .72 or so. This large gun is not so big as a wall gun...
