    SOLD Traditions Kentucky pistol

    Thanks guys. I was really happy the way this one turned out. I worked hard to antique the brass fittings and create something that looked aged and more authentic. Most important, I was surprised and happy the way it points and shoots. Surprisingly accurate. If no one is interested soon, I...

    SOLD Traditions Kentucky pistol

    Selling my .50 cal percussion Traditions Kentucky pistol. Sadly, I just need the $. Only fired about 20 rounds. Great accuracy! Browned barrel and all the shiny bits are antiqued to mimic age. Faux striping to the stock. Upgraded front sight (clearer straight profile) for better target...

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Range Review

    Maybe we're talking apples and oranges. On my target the 10X is 5/8". The ten ring (not the X) is 1 3/8" across. The 9 ring is approx. 2 1/2" across. The 8 ring is 3 3/4" across. With more practice (and adjusting the sight for vertical, I'm pretty certain I can shoot 8-10's consistently...

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Range Review

    Carbon 6, That's makes sense from a rest, but freehand.....give me a break. Granted, I have a way to go to tighten up the group, but expecting, even above average shooters, to keep all of their shots within the ten ring, even at ten yards is a dream.

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Range Review

    Notchy Bob, I found that there was a lot of extra wood on my kit. I think this is normal with Traditions these days. I removed a good bit of wood and could have done more, but I just worked until the pistol felt good in my hands. Aprayinbear

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Range Review

    Thanks for the suggestions. I agree, a taller front sight is in order. That would also give me the opportunity to buy a steel sight rather then the brass (which I like the best for my eyes.) Love the grain Rafterrob!

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Range Review

    Here are my first rounds after adjusting the sights on my Traditions Kentucky Pistol I recently built from their kit. I was shooting at 10 yards single hand, freehand. I was shooting .490 rb over prelubed Ox-Yoke .018 patches. Load was 22 grains of FFFg Goex black powder. I certainly need to...

    Continental Target Pistol. Please help me remember!?

    Please help me remember, I know there is an American dealer/maker who sells factory made and custom muzzleloading target pistols in the Continental style, but I have lost the web site and the name. Their target pistols sell in the $600-&700 range. Please help me remember. Happy Shooting!

    Just finished my Traditions Kentucky Pistol.

    Wanted a .50 cal pistol for target practice and plinkin' in the woods. Also wanted to stretch my creative side and see what I could do with an inexpensive kit. I decided on the traditions Kentucky Pistol. I wanted to try my hand at a faux curly finish. Sanded to 220 grit, whiskered the wood...

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Kit. Trigger question.

    I hope this thread helps other Traditions builders in the future. And speaking of the future.... I don't like shiny brass, so I've begun antiquing the brass fittings. I will also be browning the barrel and I think I'll try my hand at faux tiger striping. Historically correct? Maybe yes and...

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Kit. Trigger question.

    Problem solved. I went deeper with the trigger assembly and solved the problem. Still a slight bit of slop, but the pull is crisp and relatively light now. Now I am in the process of reshaping the panels to match. There is a lot of extra wood on these kits. Here is a pic of the pistol...

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Kit. Trigger question.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I agree... there is way too much wood on the lock panels. They definitely need to be reshaped. I had thought about reshaping the stock and then forging a new trigger, but if I can avoid firing up the forge, I would prefer it. I like the idea of adding to the...

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Kit. Trigger question.

    T First photo shows trigger at the point where it first touches the sear. 2nd pic: Lock removed with trigger in same position. 3rd pic: shows trigger unit inlet now. 4th pic shows trigger unit removed. What do you think?

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol Kit. Trigger question.

    What do you think, While this is a relatively simple kit (mostly sanding, shaping and assembly), I am unsure how to proceed with the trigger assembly. As inlet, when lock and trigger are test installed, the trigger has so much play that it has to be pulled almost fully back to engage the lock...
