    Removing the shine on a musket

    Yes, it is. Thanks! I think I started with the back of a butter knife for scraping it and then found that a cheap stamped spoon, like the ones from Dollar Tree, worked worlds better and I could use the curve of the spoon to get the funny nooks and crannies. Don't apply too much pressure. Your...

    Removing the shine on a musket

    Hey saw you're trying to remove the shine on the musket you've got. I figured I'd let you know my method for the matchlock I have. I removed the barrel from the gun. Plugged the front with a synthetic wine cork. What caliber is the gun? Plugged the touch hole with a toothpick. If you haven't...

    Curlys .72 caliber north west trade gun

    I see! Just looked up some on Google and I can see why they're talked about so highly. Looks like a joy to shoot with lighter loads.

    Curlys .72 caliber north west trade gun

    Anywhere we can see some pictures of these 12 bore trade guns? At 4.5lbs, I imagine they're right slim

    Y'all might not believe this but some friends and I went to get Chinese for lunch the day before the hunt, and the fortune cookie said"You will be surprised by a special opportunity on Thursday." We found the pigs on Thursday

    Thanks! Load was 30 grains of homebrew black powder with a bore butter lubed t-shirt patch and .395 cast round ball. Pig dropped like a sack of bricks from the head shot...downside was the ball traveled through the back of the skull and lodged in the offside scapula. Normally, that would be a...

    .40 cal Piggy

    Well, I finally found the pigs. Walked in about a quarter mile with a buddy after work. We were chasing squirrels on our way in and before we got to where we were going, the pigs came down the hill on top of us. Four of them at 15 yards and I shot first and he shot just a touch too late. I...
