    SOLD .54 cal. Flintlock Plains Rifle

    Purchased this Plains Rifle a month or so ago through a Gent on Penn’s Woods, and had it shipped to me. It is a beautiful gun, but a little too much for me. I guess I am more partial to a swamped LR than I thought. Fitted with a nice striped maple stock that has a poured pewter nosecap. The...

    Request for the Pa. Guys

    Not sure if this will help, but I have a request for anybody wandering the Shops of Pa. or adjacent States. I had my two hunting pistols taken from me, and who knows how far away the dirt bags will try to get rid of them. Not something a fence or buy/sell shop would deal in, but who the ----...

    Dayton Ohio Muzzy Shop

    Anybody know of a Muzzleloading Shop in or around the Dayton, Ohio area? Or somebody on here who lives in the Dayton area who could provide hands-on help? A guy on my home hunting site is having problems with his double-set trigger on a CVA Frontier flintlock, and telecoms help isn't easy.

    Cabelas Pedersoli Hawken

    I stopped by Cabelas today on the way home from Bucks Co., to take a look at their new Pedersoli Hawken. I will say first it is a nice holding and pointing gun, but I did not think to get the one that was available. First, the flintlock version is sold out, and second, the Guys at the BP...

    TC Pa. Hunter

    Need some information folks. I had an unfired TC Pa. Hunter I sold, that was a Buddys wallhanger. He needed cash for deer camp, so I took it off him to help out, had no need for it, so I sold it. After he received it, he said it isn't like the one his father has. His fathers is blued. This one...

    Who's Lock

    I picked up a rifle with this lock on it, and cannot determine who makes/made it. I looked through Chambers, RE Davis, L&R and all the reseller sites, and though a few are close, nothing is the same. Lockplate is 5-3/4" x 1". Sparks good, just can't determine whos! :confused: Anybody got...

    CVA Barrel

    I picked up a CVA Mt. rifle flinter that had some nice stripe, and a really good price. When I got it, the barrel was a bit red inside, and the breach had vise marks. I contacted him to return it. He refunded all but $150.00 :grin: and asked if I could see about another barrel. Duh, took it in...

    Past CVA Manufacturing Employees

I have a flint Frontier rifle, SN0000001, that has a QC Manager's business card attached, was signed on the back with the...

    Bluing vs. Browning

    Chemical questions for all... Why does LMF rust the metal brown, then turn black when you hit it with boiling water, but BC starts black/deep blue then turns brown when you hit it with the same? :confused: I was rebluing a Pedersoi KY barrel last night, and though it came out beautiful, it...
