    Pistol info (T. Richards boot gun.)

    This is a pistol we've had in the family for a number of years. From what I've been able to gather from my own digging is that its a british naval pistol of some sort. Kind of thinking the dating is around 1760, but i'm not exactly the most well versed when it comes to this kind of stuff. The...

    TC Hawkens. Looking to get my first.

    Just about to bite on a TC Hawken in .50 cal thats equipped with a tang sight and globe. From what I understand these guns have swappable barrels? Is there any work that needs to be done to fit them in if I were to get an extra for say patched round ball? Also curious if they are available with...

    Pedersoli Frontier, whats your take?

    Looking to add another muzzlestuffer to the safe and the Pedersoli Frontier line has caught my eye. Any of you folks have experience behind these? Mostly looking to shoot patched round ball and have something that is a little less hungry for lead compared to my .577 P53. Looking to either get...

    Building rifles. Lots to learn, and where to start?

    I've been eyeballing this section of the forum for some time now, and I've been getting more and more interested in giving this kind of thing a shot. Being in Canada might make things a bit difficult as far as sourcing parts and such goes, but I think it should be doable. I think i'm going to...

    Loading anxiety.

    Feel free to point and laugh here, but I'm hoping to get some input regarding an issue I have with shooting muzzleloaders. I've got a bad habit of expecting the worst with things, and i've heard a horror story too many of muskets going off from an ember in the chamber while loading. I usually...

    Manitoban Muzzleloaders?

    Hey there. Canada seems to be rather slim picking for the muzzleloader hobby, with folks being spread out across the provinces here. Just been curious if there are any users here that get together for black powder shooting in southern Manitoba.

    On measuring inner bore.

    Hey there. Been struggling with getting some pin gauges for my rifle and haven't' had any luck with local shops/machinists to help me out on this. Kinda went the simple route and used a digital caliper to try and determine the inner bore of my Pedersoli P53. Not really interested in buying a...

    Traditions Kentucky Rifle

    Hey there. Looking to get myself a rifle in a more accessible caliber and have had my eyes on the Traditions Kentucky rifle kit in .50. Not much selection up here in Canada without some digging and I'm looking for something a bit on the low end of cost. Figure this might be a decent choice and a...

    Wild Inaccuracy with Pedersoli P53 Enfield.

    Hey there. Winters set in here and the shooting season is over for me for the most part. I've been meaning to create this thread months ago but never got around to it until now. Earlier this year I was able to purchase a Pedersoli P53 Enfield reproduction in .577. Was a long time in saving...

    Percussion Muzzleloader Newbie questions

    Hey there. Very new to this, so please go easy! I'll finally have everything for shooting my rifle after a month or so of scrounging up supplies. Just waiting on the black powder itself, which I should be getting tomorrow. I purchased my first black powder/muzzleloading firearm last month. Its...

    Hello from Manitoba

    Hey there. Long time shooter but new to the whole Muzzleloading thing. I live in the middle of nowhere, Manitoba, Canada. I've been collecting historical firearms (Mostly WW1/WW2 stuff) for over a decade now, but just only got out of the realm of centerfire rifles to try something new. I've...
