    Poll: Will the closing of Goex dissuade you from buying a Flintlock?

    Hodgdon made a business call. I find it interesting that one would brag about immediately running out and buying 50 pounds. To each his own I guess. Reminds me of the toilet paper fiasco we experienced last year. But, hopefully, the European manufacturers will fill the void. That is if...

    Just my Kibler pics

    Well, it's done... A few boo-boo's along the way but nothing serious. I do have a slight gap between the barrel and the rear of the stock. Jim gave me an idea of the fix but it didn't seem to work. Also, pfff, I acquired a small scratch in the finish. I'll eventually resolve those two issues...

    Kibler SMR Build

    What he said... Jim is extremely concerned about his quality but occasionally something gets by them. The patch cover on my Colonial had a broken drill bit in the predrilled hole which the patch door spring is located. All it took was a call and in two days I received two new patch doors, no...

    How do you take off the crown from a flint ?

    A stupid question... Wouldn't a file work?

    How many shoot bp only?

    Unmentionables... Now that's funny... I have plenty of those and the ammo to go with it. Been stocking up for years. No way I ever give up cartridge rifles or unmentionables... I'm an equal opportunity shooter. I don't hunt but shoot as often as I can. I really like my BP guns (flinters) that I...

    First Build

    I for one, have no particular skills but enough to assemble a Kibler kit but it does involve buying some good tools, especially chisels which I have done. And, I really feel that the experience of assembling these might take the fear our of building some of the more challenging kits. Jim found...

    Break Free CLP

    CLP will not fowl any worse than anything else. Of course you could always heavily apply it and then try to shoot the gun with a wet bore. Makes you wonder how the gun could even be loaded like this... . I imagine in this case there would be some build up in the bore. The stuff I get is the...

    Second Finish On My First Flintlock

    I just got mine in the other day. Just about a month early :) Had to send away for some decent chisels so she awaits all ready to go... I think, for this gun, the change to a darker color was best.

    New Pedersoli Rust in Barrel

    All the Pedersoli's have have owned has a brown stain in the bore. As someone else said above, it must be the color of the oil/grease they use in the bores.

    What did you do today

    What I did yesterday was to receive my Kibler Southern Mountain Rifle kit :ghostly: Other than that, I will usually respond to such a question with the following response: My son called and asked me what I was going to do today. I said nothing. He said you did that yesterday. I said, true, but...

    My Kibler Southern Mountain Rifle Kit is shipping!

    Boy, that's a lot of darkening solution. I noticed on their web site that they are out of stock with the 8 oz. size. I wonder if this 8oz METAL DARKENING SOLUTION - | Brass | bronze | tin| J-3498 is the same thing. They both share part numbers... And the labels are identical with the historic...
