    Stops

    I have a Pedersoli Mortimer rifle and have noticed that when the lock is actuated , the lower jaw of the cock comes to rest against the pan flashguard. The flashguard now has quite a distinct dent in it . The trigger has become progressively harder to use and is now at the point where accuracy...

    Borescope

    Has anybody any experience with borescopes/endoscopes in muzzleloaders ? I see that there are a couple of brands on the market [ Lyman and Teslong ] but the probes are only 24 inches long . Not much use for a muzzleloader . There are cheaper types with longer flexible probes , but do they work...

    Creedmoors and barrel cleaning .

    I am considering mounting a Creedmoor type rearsight on a Whitworth replica . It appears that there are two methods of achieving this , either to mount to the tang [with an extension] or to mount to the wrist of the stock [ on the wood ]. Probably mounting on the tang will result in better...

    Ped Mort handling ?

    I'm thinking of getting a smoothbore for grouse and other winged fowl . Those of you who own Pedersoli Mortimer shotguns , how does the gun handle ? I looked up the part numbers and found out that the rifle and shotgun models share the same stock. Also the shotgun is rather heavy at 8lbs ...

    Fowler stocks

    Should a fowler be shot like a modern shotgun , from the shoulder , or should the butt be placed on the upper arm? Modern videos show shoulder mounts yet old prints seem to indicate the fowling pieces being shot from the arm.

    L&R lock in GPR

    This is a question for those that have fitted an L&R rpl lock into a Lyman GPR. On my rifle (with standard Investarms lock) the vent hole is not central in the pan and is approx 1/8 of an inch to the rear. Does the fitting of an L&R lock remedy this build fault and place hole in the centre of...

    ,Hi all , I thought I'd wade in with a few impressions of my first flintlock rifle and it might help someone make up their mind one way or t'other about purchasing a GPR . Living in the north of BC Canada the only way to purchase is online , there wasn't a GPR in stock locally that could be...
