    New powder horn

    Here is a horn that I had made for me. I was made by Sylvia Merkel. I am extremely happy with how it turned out and her attention to detail is amazing. I am also going to have her make me a flat priming horn to match. In this day and age, I think the message it conveys is more important than...

    Schuetzen Black Powder ???

    Has anyone had any experience with this. We shoot Go-Ex in our local club and we are having a hard time getting more. I've heard good things about Swiss, but it's just so dang expensive!! :cursing:

The stock is made from American walnut and the green mountain barrel is fitted and the lock is partially inletted. The trigger is not inletted yet, as there is none, that part is up to me. I'm just looking for...

    Finally got some decent pics of my custom

    I finally got a new camera and decided to take some pictures of my Early Virginia Rifle. I love the way the grain pops in the sunlight :grin: And it is a great shooter. 50cal, octagon to round barrel and balances perfect!

    Thinking about a muzzle cap.....

    I have a Dixie Gun Works southern mountain rifle. It's a poor boy, so it's not all dressed up or anything. I've been thinking about fitting/pouring a muzzle cap to protect the end grain. I know it's not pc for a poor boy, but i really want to protect the stock. Looking for some tips on pouring...

    Some pics of my camp

    The first two pics are of my camp and the rest are of my rondy neighbors :) The one pole works best for me, as I usually camp alone, and it makes for quick and easy set-up.

The possibles bag on the left, I picked up on ebay, the other I bought at Friendship a couple years ago. I really want to make my own, but I'm still trying to hone my...

They have a very good selection of accoutrements and shooting supplies as well as a few custom ML builders with plenty of parts and knowledge. I've been attending for the past few years...

    Custom Flintlock, trying to determine the maker

    Here are a few picture's I would like you guys to take a look at. My main question is whether the "A" on the top of the barrel flat is the makers mark or the barrel makers mark. The 50cal barrel is around 42" long and is octagon to round. The rifle has never been shot. Even the rear sight isn't...
