    SOLD Need a winter project? How about a Flintlock kit?

    Some time back I posted that I had to buy a flintlock kit that I didn’t want in order to get the finished Hawkin rifle I did want. You can refer to my original post at this link: Rifle builder Allen B. Postel of Gilbert, IA . I finally found the time to organize the parts, build a shipping box...

It was part of my step-mother’s brother’s estate and the man’s family had tagged it to be sold at an upcoming garage sale for $25. My dad asked them if he could...

    Loading Rod Consistency Enhancement

    Howdy fellow BP shooters, I joined this forum in 2008 and have read a ton here but haven’t been able to contribute much because of my limited actual shooting sessions over the last 25 years, or so. Before that I had a lot more free time and used to shoot quite regularly. I am grateful for all...

    Another newby on-line here!

    Howdy folks, I am in the Kansas City, MO area and have shot ML rifles (traditional and in-line) causually for many years. I hope to become more involved now that I have acquired a T.C. Cherokee for my wife to shoot and more time for us to go shooting. I just found this forum and am looking...
