    SOLD Uberti 1851 Colt Navy .36 (sold pending funds)

    I purchased this in November 2022 from Dixie. It's a great shooter that is in immaculate shape. Nothing has been altered from the factory. I have put around 250 rounds through it, 90% of them being with 16gr of 3f and a rb. It will come with a two cavity LEE ball mold and a holster. It will ship...

    A Question About Selling a Handgun

    I will soon be listing my Uberti 1851 Navy. My question to the members here is where should I restrict selling it to? I.E. NYC is off limits. I'd wager New Jersey is also. So I need the combined knowledge of the members to advise me on where not to send it.

    Has anyone used their 54 caliber rifle as a 28 gauge shotgun?

    I was thinking about fooling around using a shot wad in my 54 hawken style Mountain rifle. You can get 500 of them on Amazon for about 30 bucks. Has anybody here used a 28guage shot cup/wad in their .54 rifle? And if so, what were your results?

    Kentucky rifle rear sight questions

    It is manufactured by Pedersoli. I very much enjoy shooting it except I have difficulty with the sighting picture, my eyes are not what they used to be and I wear trifocals. I have heard of the rear sight being moved forward, but cutting another dovetail into the barrel is not something I want...

    SOLD Numrich Arms "Boot" Pistol .36

    I got this as a kit 45 yrs ago, it was my second kit gun. When I say kit, it was only needing some sanding and bluing. Comes with a holster that is more of a custom sleeve made of leather I made up during summer break. Anything that looks like rust in the screw slots is just where the screws...

    Invest Arms Hawken sight question/recommendation.

    I got a really sweet deal on the rifle mentioned above and because of my questionable eyesight, I would like to mount a peep sight on it. As shown, it has a substantial tang. So, I need your help and suggestions.

    Numrich Arms "boot pistol" question.

    I got this as a kit 45 yrs ago. When I say kit, it was only needing some sanding and blueing. I am thinking of putting it up for sale but don't know if these are desirable at all or what I should start the price out at. It is a .36. I will try to get some pics up soon. Thoughts anyone? Edit...

    SOLD .58 Investarms Hawken Rifle for parts. Only shot twice! Left handed.

    No, the header is not a joke. The pics tell most of the story. This was purchased by my late Uncle. Let us say that it is an example of why one should never lose track of their loading procedure. I was there when it happened. We were yaking it up too much and when he squeezed the trigger it made...

    Dixie Gun Works Catalogue question

    What is their latest catalogue like? Does it reflect only what can be seen online or is it full of the wares that the older catalogs used to have. Want to know before I order it.

    What size ball for new rifle .54

    Not new, but new to me. It is an Investarms .54 made in 1977. Beautiful rifle that will have to be pryed from me like Johnson did when he took Hatchet Jack's. Anyway, it is my first .54 and I know there are at least several people here that can tell me what size ball I should be using. Thanks in...

    Question for long arms from Loyalist Arms owners

    I can almost hear the eyes rolling at yet another question about Loyalist Arms guns, but.... I have heard that some of them had breech plugs that are actually welded in place. I need to know if this is true at all as I am thinking about possibly purchasing one.

    Does anyone own one of these? I'd like to know something about it before I move closer to "pulling the trigger" on getting one. Here is the link to what I am talking about: http://www.loyalistarms.freeservers.com/britishheavydragoon1730.html

    Pre ignition

    I will start with I always use a separate powder measure to charge the gun, no exceptions. That said, In my 45 yrs shooting smoke poles, I have never seen a charge go off due to an "ember" in the barrel from the last shot. Has anyone had first hand experience with this and if so, what were the...

    Question about TOTW true spark surface hardining compound

    I treated the frizzen on my Pedersoli Kentucky (it never was a really good sparker). Followed the instructions to the letter. Polished it all up and made sure the face of the frizzen was properly contoured and smooth as it was originally. No spark. New flint, no spark. To shorten this post, as I...

    Trade knives

    I was looking at some shipping manifests or trade items for the fur business. Something I noticed was several scores of folding knives, both large and small. The manifests were French. Is there a book or website recommendation to find out more about these?

    Browning a lock- questions

    I asked this in my own thread, need to ask it here to get a wider spectrum of answers. OK, I am thinking of browning my lock since the barrel will be. The lock is case hardened. Will there be/can there be issues with how it turns out owing to pattern of the case hardening? If I were to remove...
