    My New Pietta 1851 Navy

    Or as I'm lying and calling it my Griswold & Gunnison........ ;) From the start it wouldn't lock back in full cock half the time I pulled the hammer back unless I jerked it back hard. The weird thing was with the barrel removed it functioned correctly, put the barrel back on and it would...

    Mulling over a Couple of Possible Projects

    I've been thinking about it off and on for a while now. First is picking up a inletted Pecatonica Transitional stock with the matching Davis Jaeger lock and probably the trigger also and moving the other hardware over from my reworked H&A Minuteman. The other is doing pretty much the same...

    HMS Victory Videos

    Found these 3 videos, two specifically on the Victory and the other a general ship of the line using Victory as the model. Thought this might be of interest to many here. It's crew compliment consisted of over 800 men and had more firepower than Wellington had at the Battle of Waterloo. Enjoy.

    Replacement Frizzen

    Some of you may remember I broke the frizzen on my H&A Minuteman a while back. I had put it to the side while I focused on other projects building "unmentionables". I finally sent pictures and measurements to Track and they recommended using the Late Ketland frizzen. It arrived the other day...

    WANTED WTB Ketland Flintlock

    Looking for either a Classic or a Late Ketland lock. Prefer the Late lock as the fit is better to replace the Numrich lock on my H&A Minuteman. Yes I know Track has the late lock available but figured I check here first, see if anyone has one they want to part with.

    SOLD Investarms .54 Caliber "Hawken"

    This is the one I replaced almost all the metal on with parts from the Hawken Shop which also involved some stock reworking. The Hawken Shop did not have an iron patchbox cover so it was obviously not switched out. Found some beautiful wood grain under the original dark stain, I believe I...

    Debating Selling my Indian Bess

    And buying an Indian Fusil. At 68 years old I'm not going to fight in any more reenactments so considering replacing my 1st Pattern Long Land with a Fusil which I believe would be more accurate with a civilian persona (1760s). Not sure if a civilian (possibly a militia man) would have picked...

    Shippo

    For those who are selling and shipping items I decided to give this online service a try. When I shipped my previous flintlock smoothbore the cheapest was about $125 to ship (via FedEx). This time I researched online options and decided to give Shippo a try due to the fact they are one of the...

    I won't be selling my H&A any time soon.......

    Had it out in the garage, set it up against my workbench turned to grab a screw driver and heard a crash. It had fallen over, the frizzen hit the concrete floor first. I've already searched the internet for a replacement frizzen with no luck which most likely means finding a lock that will...

    What would I ask for this?

    As I stated in my old Hopkins & Allen reworking thread I've finally finished it and am considering selling it. The only sold prices I can find are from the 20teens on un-customized Minuteman flintlocks and percussion models. So I'm trying to get a fair idea of what I might charge and yes I...
