    Cannon arrows

    I cant find any pictures :( If you've got netflix, watch the durling pistol episode of weaponmasters. They shoot one of those arrows out of an early cannon basically it is short, fat, and the fletching is halfway up the shaft.

    making slowmatch....

    Well I use bucked flax for my match. It holds an ember, and is much cheaper than buying saltpeter. This link should help http://www.musketeer.ch/blackpowder/lunte.html

    where to get a truly historic gonne?

    Yes, but rather on the expensive side... I'm looking at the better half of $ 175, Max. But if push comes to shove, I'll give the rifle shoppe a whirl :)

    where to get a truly historic gonne?

    I always ask these silly questions,where to get this, where to get that.... but this one is more or less valid than my other ramblings.... I want either true tannenberg, a tabor, or hackenbuchse like one in the hussite wars. Blueprints would be useful too. Ive turned a gonne before. So let me...

    is it legal to make black powder?

    I'm almost sorry I asked. I'm relatively new to the forum. I'll drop a call to the ATF and get it figured out.

    is it legal to make black powder?

    This is probably a rehashed question.... I live in Hardin county Ohio, I see no laws saying you cannot manufacture black powder, but there are laws against explosives. This being said, in the context of what I will use my black powder for, (handgonnes) it is a propellant.... so now I'm not sure...

    where to get a percussion cap pistol kit cheap?

    My ace took the whole weekend, and some serious filing and well more filing (inside the barrel, because it was jacked up)to work properly. I replaced my spring with a factory spring... worked Much better afterwoods. I appreciate the link! It just cut 10 dollars from our expenses :). Sorry to...

    where to get a percussion cap pistol kit cheap?

    That would be cool. Wish my lathe still worked. We could lathe down the back portion of the Kentucky to fit the barrel attachment for the duckfoot, use it as the center piece. Not sure it would hold.... it would look scary as heck though! I think we are going to get the Kentucky, then for...

    It is kind of rifled.... we put a thread in it with a smaller drill, rotating it as it went down, to make grooves..

    where to get a percussion cap pistol kit cheap?

    He'll have to wait a while, but he's decided on either a Kentucky pistol, or classic arms duckfoot kit. His mom, my sister, wont let me pay for anything, being a worry wart as always, she is hoping he won't want to buy any guns once he realizes how much he is actually spending on tools, oils...
