    I have another question

    I have a 1980 Navy Arms ‘58 Remington NMA. The manufacturer’s cartouche is a capital letter P in a diamond. I’ve tried all my usual sources to find out the manufacturer and come up empty. Can anyone identify this mark? Thanks Phill

    Cartridge Case Black Powder Volume

    Sometime time ago someone on this forum published how many grains in volume of BP was in different cartridge cases. I think starting with the 22lr case and up. I had the list in my photo library but can not find it. I think the 38 Spl case was around 22 grains of BP. Does anyone have this list...

    It Finally Happened

    To the Mods, if this is in the wrong forum then please move it. I just got my latest email from the Indiana DNR. They are have opened discussions on several rules changes. The most important to me was the muzzleloading deer season change. The change requested would remove from the law “that...

    Question about Peitta 36 cal Navy

    Hello everyone, I have Peitta Navy 36 Sheriffs model. It is old and at on time was very rusty. I cleaned it up and bought all new screws and springs for it. I knew the hand would need to be fitted but I’m having a problem with the trigger spring. When the hammer is pulled back to the first...

    Another T/C 56 Smoothbore Question

    I would like to know if any one knows what years T/C made their 56 caliber smoothbore Renegade. I've tried this forum and everywhere else I can think of and cannot even find the first year except it was in the 1980's. Thanks for your help.

    Does Your State have a Primitive Deer Season

    To the moderators, if this thread needs to be moved please do so. Hello to all, I live in Indiana. We have a muzzleloading deer season. This includes any muzzleloader from a matchlock to a $10K scoped inline. I'm going to petition our DNR to establish a primitive firearms deer season. A...

    T/C rear sight

    This my sound like a strange question but I'm counting on an answer from the more informed T/C knowledgeable members. Does anyone know of a more traditional rear sight for a Renegade? Or is it a question of getting it dovetailed for a sight? I'm just wondering? Thanks

    Is It Just Me?

    Is it just me or does putting a modern scope on a sidelock seem an abomination? I see sidelocks on auction sites high lighting they come with a, fill in the blank, scope. It is disturbing to me. And if you don't use that scope you have to have screws fill in the scars left by the holes. Am I...

    What is your smallest caliber/gauge smoothie

    While in another thread about using shot in a 32 caliber, it got me wondering about small bore smooth rifles and shotguns. My smallest is a 52 caliber/ 32 gauge percussion shotgun. My normal load is 60 grains 2f with 7/8 shot or heavy patched .490 round ball. The barrel is thick but not rifle...

    My Toy CVA Cannon

    Hello, tonight is the first time I’ve looked at the Cannon forum. I saw a post by Eutycus on his toy firecracker cannon and I thought of mine. I believe it to be a CVA cannon. I’m guessing it to be about 40 years old as I’ve had it 35 years. It is 45 caliber and rifled about seven inches long...

    Blueing after EvapoRust treatment

    Hello, has anyone used EvapoRust on a rusted barrel then blued the barrel and how did the results look? I had a .36 caliber Colt given to me that had rust all over the barrel surface, the loading lever and lighter rust on both cylinders. I did the EvapoRust treatment on them. The bare metal came...

    Loose Sights

    Hello, I picked a used 45 cal CVA Colonial pistol cheap. It was missing both sights and ramrod. The exterior looked like it had old nickel plating but the stock was good and the bore near perfect. I ordered the sights from Deer Creek Products as CVA NOS. For whatever reason the sight dovetails...

    Removing a T/C breechplug not a rehash

    Hello, first I have always heard one should not remove a breechplug on a flinter or percussion sidelock. Especially if you had CVA or Traditions firearm. Why I bring this is I was reading a T/C Hawken pdf manual. When I got down to the cleaning instructions it clearly stated to remove the...

    Lyman 36 caliber Revolver

    Hello, back about 1981 or 82, my brother saw a used Lyman Remington 36 caliber revolver at a gun show and bought it. He bought it to give to me as he was never into BP. It came with the box and paperwork. The top of the barrel has Lyman Middlefield CONN. The left side has 36 Caliber Navy. The...

    Double Set triggers

    I hope I'm in the right forum for this question. Last week I won a T/C Renegade 54 cal off an auction site. I bid on this because about ten years ago I picked up a 20 gauge barrel that fits a Renegade/Hawken stock. I had bought a stock when a gun shop was closing it's doors. I was going to build...
