    Is the Kibler SMR light and whippy?

    I have a .40. Light and nice to carry. The grip is not comfortable for target shooting offhand. Not meant to be a target rifle. Not sure what whippy is.

    Gunstock Blanks

    Coat the ends with Anchorseal. Sticker planks or blanks where you get air flow through the stack. Cover the stack with sheet metal or wood. If you sticker blanks make sure to cut them oversize. They can shrink more than you think.... Figure one inch per year but don't be surprised if some...

    What Was Under Your Tree?

    My neighbor John. He made it a long time ago. Just a hobby. Can't get him to do anything for money now days.

    What Was Under Your Tree?

    I got a fancy capper and a nipple wrench. Here's the nipple wrench.

    Neat capper

    Works perfectly. Made of steel and heat blued. John told me he made the capper when he was learning to engrave. He has built and engraved many firearms. Mostly flintlock and percussion rifles. Yes, John can do many things. Here he is at 79 this summer, carving a CZ stock in my shop.

    Chunk Guns

    I have shot in a couple chunk gun matches using my Ted Fellows long barrel 45. Lot of fun. Here's an old picture of a fellow holding a big ole chunk gun and dressing the part.

    Wondering about ramrods

    Run out? If you're talking about a bend in a rod, I don't mind that in a hunting rifle. Keeps the rod from falling out. I been making Ebony rods on my lathe the last few weeks. This rod is perfectly round and extremely straight. The finish is linseed oil and rubbing with a cotton tack rag. I...

    Wondering about ramrods

    Some of my old picket rifles have just plain rods with no ends. Perty sure they're there just so it looks like nothings missing. Buddy of mine has been making all sorts of ramrods for years on his lap with a hand plane. They are beautiful.
