    Shipping T/C's from California

    Hi all, I have not been on the site for some time. A lot of other interests. I want to ship some Muzzle loaders and I forgot what is the best way to ship them to other states. I will be listing them as soon as I find out. These rifles need to go to someone who will use them. Thank you all for...

    It looks very much like a Traditions Kentucky percussion that I just put together from a kit.

    Refinishing oil soaked stock?

    Hi all, I am refinishing a hawken stock that has been soaked with oil. Is there a process that will take the oil out of the wood and lighten it some again? I have heard of the use of oven cleaner. Is this a good way to do it? Thank you all for your help. Bob

    T/C Hawken shredded patches

    Thank you all for your input. I will try Real black powder first and also add more lube to my patches. I noticed that the rifling in the bore of this .45 cal barrel has 12 lands and 12 groves. Is this standard? My .50 cal barrel does not have that many. Bob

    T/C Hawken shredded patches

    Hi all, I need a little help. I recently purchased a .45 cal. T/C Hawken 1:48 twist. The bore looks new. It has a 4 digit serial number so it is probably pretty old but not shot much and in great shape. I shot it today and it was shredding and burning all the patches. I was shooting .440 balls...

    T/C Hawken shoots high

    The front sight is new from T/C. The original was slightly bent. Same height as old sight. I am putting the bead of the front sight down in the hole in the "V" of the rear sight. I thought at first I was not doing that, so I was very careful to make sure. I E-Mailed T/C customer service a few...

    Help ID this flask

    You bet, Bucktales. I chucked the powder. Had no clue what it was even though it seemed ok. Been searching the "net" to try to ID. Not much luck with no markings. Dixon & sons made one close to it. Bob
