    Mortimer

    I have looked them up but can not find much about them. Who is Mortimer and what roll (if any) did they play in the American west? Did hawkin design his plains rifle after their rifles or did Mortimer copy Hawkin?

    Educate me on Petersoli please

    For years I have wanted a Petersoli Rocky Mountain Hawkin in maple as I think it's one of the most beautiful rifles ever made. On occasion on here I hear the acosional complaint about Petersoli and I am wondering just how good or bad is their quality. I have learned that when a person gets to...

    Only one muzzle loading rifle

    I'm sure this has been done to death but here we go anyway. If you could have only one muzzle loading rifle what would it be? Include maker, percusion or flintlock, why that rifle and things like that. Smooth bore is ok but this is more about rifles.

    Why Kibler

    I'm am far from an expert on bp as I just tinker with it for awhile then go do something else then come back and piddle for awhile then go find something else then come back and over and over. In the past when asked by a poster to recommend something there was a small list of recommendations...

    I'm getting rid of all firearms and settling on only 5 and they are all going to be bp. 1 hunting rifle, 1 sxs shotgun, 1 fowler, 2 pistols (one for hunting one for protection). My rifle will be a Pedersolie Missouri River Hawken in .50cal and maple wood. My sxs shotgun will be a Pedersolie...

    Sheriffs model and things to come

    8 I just got me a new Taylor/Pietta 1851 Navy with 4-7/8 barrel in .44 cal. I like the checkered grips but I bet after prolong shooting your hands will get tender. I will be putting this 4 and 7/8 barrel on a 1860 birdshead frame like the picture above but that picture is on a 7.5 inch barrel...

    Where to get parts at

    Let's say i want just parts, where do i get them. Where can I get just grip frames or a frame or just a barrel? Let's say I want a Pietta birdshead grip frame. Can I order one from Pietta? Let's say I want a London grip frame to replace a brass one. Where can I get one. Thanks, Bob

    FFFF?

    I want faster fps. Can I go 4F? I don't want to have to go to modern substitute. How about powder dust? How much can colt clones take before breaking?

    1851 or 1860 barrel?

    I have a Pietta 1860 stubby (birds head grip) but am going to put a 5 inch barrel on this birdshead grip frame so I can have a loading leave and have a little better ballistics. I like the 1851 (in .44 cal) barrel but am kind of interested in opinions and likes. Who prefers an 1851 barrel...

    Weird combination

    I use the loading lever on my 1851 in .44cal to load the cylinder on my 1860 snubby. The 51 barrel looks good on the birdshead grip. Any other cool combinations out there?

    Stuck wedge

    The wedge on my 1860 was so tight I could not get it out, I had to use 3 hands to get it out. Now I have scratched up the finish. How can I fill in the scratches? It's a black blue, anybody sell a bottle or repair blue.

    Sling for muzzleloader

    I seen a sling on a Renegade that I like and was wondering where to get one. It was made of leather and it was just a pocket for the rifle butt and a leather strap that wrapped around the barrel. Do they sell them somewhere or is that something I have to make myself?

    How many Senica barrels?

    How many barrels are made for the Senica? I know of a .36 and .45. Is there also a .32 and a shotgun barrel? What is the shotgun barrel and how hard to find are they? Are they hard on the stock? Is .32 easy to find?
