    How Much is the Cap and Ball Revolver Hobby in 2024? You Might be Surprised. (Video) Now at 5:08 he says you will probably want an ultrasonic cleaner. So here I was unaware of using one of these all my life. Can anybody post about or point to online sources of using one of these? :dunno: Thank...

    Correct compass

    Not cheap. $50. Has a lever to hold the needle when transporting. Based on Smithsonian Corps of Discovery 1803. I was near the $150 free ship total, so I got free shipping by adding. Saved $10. https://www.crazycrow.com/personal-mountain-man-gear/lewis-and-clark-pocket-compass

    My Lewis and Clark pistol replica.

    The records show Lewis obtained 2 "horse pistols" from the armory in Harpers Ferry. There were 2 types of U.S. pistols there. For 3 or 4 reasons, most everybody thinks they took the 1799 North and Chaney. It was copy of the 1777 Charleville that differs in 2 respects. The N&C barrel is longer by...

    Has anybody tumble lubed bullets for black powder revolvers or rifles?

    I don't think this lube forumula is good for black powder bullets, like it is for smokeless. This looks easier than using a heated pan full of lube.

    Removing stuck cleaning jag.

    Years ago I paid a local gunsmith to remove a broken jag. I was new to the hobby, didn't know how easy it is. The only thing I would do different is use a tin can instead of a good drinking cup.

    Historical muzzleloader old west gunfights.

    I would say this incident was more newsworthy than the OK corral fight which of course was after the muzzleloading days. But it occurred in a place and time where newspapers and reporters did not exist. The California Gold Rush 1849 to 1855 were the peak years. The Sydney Ducks gang terrorized...
