    Another Cherry Colonial

    I'm very pleased with results on my new Kibler Colonial with a cherry stock. I built several rifles and fowlers years ago with pre-shaped stocks, where I had to inlet everything except the barrel. Now I'm spoiled that I didn't have to do any inletting to put this rifle together. This is also...

    Tried and True Oil Finish

    I'm about to finish a Kibler Colonial with a cherry stock. I bought an 8oz bottle of Tried and True Original Wood Finish and was surprised to see how thick it is. I was expecting a lighter oil, similar or slightly thicker than Trueoil. This is very thick and heavier, about like honey. I...

    FOR SALE SOLD! - Tennessee Mountain Rifle

    Dixie Gun Works .50 cal Tennessee Mountain Rifle. Dixie had these made by Miroku in Japan in the 1980s and early 90s. They were probably the most authentic factory made long rifle produced. This is an early example with a 300s serial number with a 7/8 inch octagon barrel. Later production...

    SOLD .58 Virginia Rifle Kit

    SALE PENDING! This is a 75% assembled kit. My buddy bought this partially assembled kit off of blanket sale at the Fort Toulouse event around 2002. It has sat in his closet until I bought it from him last year. I also have found that I don't have the time to complete it. It needs a good...

    SMR half cock problem

    I finished my SMR recently and I'm very pleased with it. It was a breeze to assemble and looks great now that it is finished. I'm having trouble with the cock stopping on half cock when using the set trigger. It falls fine and sparks great using only the front tigger. The fly appears to be...

    Set Triggers on Dixie Mountain Rifle

    I've come into one of the old Dixie Mountain Rifles recently and have a concern about the set triggers. Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity of the front trigger? This thing will go off with just a touch of the finger, no pressure required. It is so sensitive that I think it is unsafe to...

    .50 caliber Colt Dragoon?

    50 CALIBER DRAGOON? I bought this recently on Gunbroker. It was billed as a standard Armi-San Marco 3rd Model Dragoon. Imagine my surprise when a .460 bullet fell into the chamber! The gun was made in 1981 and shows no signs of being fired. The chambers are .480 and the barrel is the same...

    SOLD Model 1842 .69 Caliber Rifled Musket

    About 20,000 Model 1842 Muskets were rifled and fitted with long range sights in the late 1850s. Practically all of these big bore rifle muskets saw use during the Civil War on both sides. Armi-Sport had faithfully reproduced this weapon with its correct 1:72 twist three groove rifling. This...

    SOLD Uberti Fluted Model 1860 Army

    I'll call this a used gun, but it is in like new condition. It it was fired, I can't tell it. This is gun was made in 2002, back at the apex of Uberti quality. I think they did a much better job on the color case hardning in those days also. The original Fluted Cylinder 1860s were very rare...

    New Sharps bullet

    We are considering having a run of molds made for this Sharps bullet. This is the Richmond Laboratory version and is designed to be used with paper or linen cartridges. Most folks use the ring-tail bullets, but this would offer another historically accurate bullet that uses a different means...
