    Loyalist Arms Brown Bess

    Thanks all, for the great input. About a week ago, my wife surprised me with a pedersoli. Good woman! Shot her the first t time yesterday with paper cartridges and . 715 ball... there is a very high probability of addiction with this thing. Also ordered a bunch of over powder and...

    Loyalist Arms Brown Bess

    Thank you so much for the detailed break down of your observations on your Bess! It sounds like you feel it was well worth what you paid for it. Do you mean the trigger pull is exceptionally heavy?

    Good Inexpensive entry level rifle

    I was in the same boat a few months ago. Based on what I've read, I'm sure opinions will widely vary! I ended up purchasing a Cabelas (Invest Arms) Hawkens in .50 cal. I have found it to be a great beginners rifle. There were only a couple of "problems": The touch-hole is set back in the...

    The incredible shrinking BP counter

    Coming out of the lurker shadows on this one :) I recently went to the local Gander Mountain in search of black powder for my flintlock (hoping not to pay a hazmat shipping fee, of course), and when I asked the clerk back with the guns if they carried black powder, he said, "no, but we've got...

    Hello, and thank you

    I would just like to say a big thanks to everyone on this forum for all of their professional (and often amusing) conversations that have helped me out immensely in this sport/passion.
