    How do you prime?

    I fire practically all my flintlock firearms using paper cartridge tubes. Ahead of time fill the tube with your main powder charge and add 5 grains for priming. Rip off the top of the cartridge and pour your priming charge from it up to the level you want in your pan. Shut the frizzen. Then...

    My blunderbuss options

    I strongly agree! Buy an original from some of the major firearms auction companies like Rock Island Auction, etc. You can get them at about the price of a modern custom build and they are way cooler. I've bought several. Some with spring bayonets and half cock safeties which you will never...

    Nock Volley Gun

    Many thanks Dale! But it sounds like the best solution to cleaning a Nock Volley Gun is to never fire it in the first place!! LOL

    Nock Volley Gun

    I recently acquired one of these Nock Volley guns that was probably built by Jess Melot. Plan to shot it soon but I would really like someone who has one of these to tell me the best way to clean it. I don't see how it would be possible to clean the touch holes connected to the center barrel...

    Wheellock lock comparison - Spanish Mendi vs. Indian X model

    Hi all! I just bought a Nock Volley gun made by The Rifle Shoppe. Have not fired it yet but making a loading block is something I probably need to do!

    SOLD Flintlock Fusil de Chasse

    I'm thinking that's a Fusil Fin kit from R.E. Davis. I have one of the earlier ones that looks identical but the barrel, lock and side-plate has a bare steel finish. Mine has a 50" barrel which was available on the earlier kits. RE Davis still sells the kits in either brass or steel finish...

    Good, cheap bore lights

    Unfortunately I believe these are "flashers" and not a solid white light.

    Good, cheap bore lights

    I've looked everywhere for a white one but that must be a color they no longer make.

    Good, cheap bore lights

    So what do you find is the best color to use? Red, green or yellow?? Thanks.

    Drying your tent?

    While Civil War reenacting I have had to dry up to 10 tents after rainy weather. I have a deck and hang all the tents open over the railing. I can tell you it can be a lot of work. Let them dry for at least a day in the sun.

    Which Prime Powder 2F,3F,4F...Wheelock

    I think the finer the powder for wheellock priming the better. I use "Null B" grade of powder for priming. It is noticeably finer than 4F. You can also grind 4F (or any grade) powder with a mortar and pestle and get it to be pretty close to Null B.

    Flints - English vrs French

    Anybody know someone who makes custom flints that you can order from. The geometry of my lock requires flints longer than they are wide which are really hard to find. Most are kind of square.
