    Pritchett Bullet Mold

    He seems to be living in a time-warp, which is pretty sad. However, he advises us to make contact with him via E***, using the username glennhow56. You can message him that way, but, AFAIK, that's it. He left a note on the MLAGB pages of FB a while back advising us of this method - it's his...

    Pritchett Bullet Mold

    In the near future I'll be ordering a .565" dia mould for paper patching to cast bullets for my original Pritchett rifle..... Brett Gibbons actually makes these bullets by swaging, but the cost of shipping makes sending them here prohibitive. See his excellent YouTube movies! - papercartridges...

    English .28 Gauge Single Shotgun need Help

    We had a bicycle shop in Wrexham - Walter Roberts in King Street - had a rack of BSA Sportsman 5 and Supersports. And in Coldharbour Lane, Brixton, a little bike accessory shot that sold Webley 9mm garden guns................. And now?

    Adams Revolver Announcement

    I posted this on another forum last Summer. From first-hand reports of folks actually handling the samples, they are not that special in terms of quality. No idea of cost, but like anything with a small manufacturing run and a highly-specialised customer base, they won't be giving them away...

    How Deadly is a Flintlock Rifle…

    The colonists used the flintlock rifle on their future allies, the French, in the French and Indian Wars. Why pick the on the Brits every time?

    English .28 Gauge Single Shotgun need Help

    The UK never had' hardware store' guns of any kind. Here the hardware stores are/were called ironmongers, and they sell/sold household goods and kitchen/gardening et al equipment, but not firearms of any kind.

    Owners of original (not modern replicas) C&B revolvers, do you shoot them?

    Do you have a photo of the late president actually shooting it?

    Owners of original (not modern replicas) C&B revolvers, do you shoot them?

    I shoot my original .577cal Pritchett Volunteer two-band rifle, and both my Sniders, although I wouldn't admit that here........

    Willkommen, Holger, aus East Anglia, nicht weit von dir entfernt. Dein Karabiner Modell 1852 Sharps ist kein Vorderlader und schießt mit einer Metallpatrone. Dieses Forum wird hauptsächlich für Vorderlader schusswaffen verwendet, daher der Name des Forums. Haben Sie solche Schusswaffen...

    Tr. 'Hello everyone, I come from Germany. My name is Holger and my English is not that good. But it's all my own work, not by Google...:) :) :) I'm posting here because I have an original Sharps .50-70 Gov from 1852 (??). I would like to find out more about this. That's why I would like to...

    Short Barrel Rifles verses Long Barrel Rifles test. Details Below...

    That was because the primary 'aim' of European, mostly British, shooters was to improve MILITARY marksmanship, not a leisure pursuit. The British marksmen were either serving military, members of a Volunteer organisation, or former military personnel of all ranks. With the emphasis on military...

    Short Barrel Rifles verses Long Barrel Rifles test. Details Below...

    This is a bit like the so-called World series - your ultra-heavy match rifles with composite bullets, loading devices, and barrel weighing as much as three-year-old child don't seem to be popular anywhere else in the world of BP muzzleloading. I have no doubt that a rifle that is held up by a...

    Short Barrel Rifles verses Long Barrel Rifles test. Details Below...

    Sadly, there seems to be a distinct lack of interest in bench-rest muzzleloading shooting anywhere except the US of A. Hence my comment. The MLAGB, AFAIK, requires match rifles to conform to certain well-established standards of design in the traditional style. Bench-rest shooting of 50#...

    Why is it,then, that our match rifles tend to have barrels in the region of 33 inches length?
