    Help ! Newbie attempting to build an 1861 Springfield from a pile of parts

    First I must confess to being a complete noob at what I'm attempting with the exception of building one of the Nepal Brown Bess kits from IMA last year. Now I'm wanting to build an 1861 Springfield rifle from a variety of repro and original parts. This project consists of a new repro stock from...

    Looking for shooting bag patterns

    I don't expect y'all who make this type of stuff to give up your secrets but I've been making things with leather for many years just for friends and family, mainly carved belts, wallets, pocketbooks and that sort of thing. I have some nice leather that already has a finish on it I got somewhere...

    Severely neglected CVA .45 caliber Kentucky half stock

What do you folks use for derusting a rusty bore ? Can't tell at the moment if it's pitted or not until I...

    Identify badly butchered Tennessee rifle

    Have a chance to buy this relic and I have no clue if it has any value at all. It's beat all to hell, had the barrel cut off and sights added, rusty, missing the hammer, etc. The only markings I can find are on the lock plate. J. A. Mitermair if I'm reading it correctly. The stock is typical...

    Nepal Brown Bess from IMA

    New project. Been looking at these "kits" for a couple of years or more and with the advice of the fine folks over on the British Militaria forum I finally bit the bullet and ordered one. If some of you don't know the story the owner of IMA found and purchased 55,000 antique weapons from the...

    New old guy in Tennessee checking in

    Greetings. New to muzzle loaders but not new to firearms. I've not owned or fired a black powder weapon in probably 35 years and that was one of the foreign made replica revolvers. I've rebuilt several modern military type rifles and decided it was time to switch gears a little so I jumped in...
