    Files for making barrel lug dovetails

    So the problem I have is, the lugs measure 470 thousands at the widest. My Grobet files are at least 520 thousands wide. I have dug through all I have and the older stuff just isn't suitable. Where are you guys finding good metal files a bit less than a 1/2" in width? Preferably no more than...

    Kibler SMR & LMF Honey Maple eye candy

    I bought this Kibler SMR .40cal about 2.5 years ago I think. Been sitting in it's box patiently waiting. Today it got some more sanding and then a good coat of Laurel Mountain Forge Honey Maple stain. I wanted a lighter colored rifle and this is looking mighty fine. Just the buttstock. I'll...

    Woodsrunner Arrived today!

    Hardly a mark on the shipping box. Had to check it out of course. I had asked for something special as far as the quality of wood grain and current stock blanks allowed. This is above grade. Really nice flame grain on the buttstock. The curl width varys, with some clusters, some wide, some...

    CLOSED William Ivey’s book “North Carolina Schools of Longrifles 1765 – 1865”

    Anyone have a well-worn version of this laying about I could procure for a reasonable sum?

    Kibler Colonial 58, Finally Done

    Well, very nearly done. I had attended the build class at WKU in June with Wallace Gusler as our instructor. Had a great time! Jim Kibler was also in the building teaching another class. And there was simply a lot of talented people around to offer advice. Forgive me for not naming all the...

    Kibler SMR Kit Arrived

    Not sure just how quick I will get to working on this. It's a 40cal, Extra Fancy wood. I had just received my 58cal rifled Colonial kit with standard wood, just a couple weeks ago now. That one is for a class coming up soon. I tried to pick up the curl in this stock with the iPhone. Jim...
