    Old FIE 1858 Remington .44 Brass Frame Revolver

    A friend inherited this revolver with a bunch of other guns. It was very hard to cock so he brought it to me to check. I guess it is just worn out in the hand slot because of heavy use over the years on the brass frame. Here is a picture of the hand at half cock and the slot chimney base was...

    1858 Remington Grip Strip

    I really like my new Pietta Remington except for the muddy looking stained red walnut grips. I used some spray Quick Strip that removed it all off in one coat. Then washed them in acetone. This is how they look after light sanding and only one coat so far of True Oil. I like them much better...

    1850's Percussion Squirrel Gun 32 cal.

    A friend brought over this family heirloom gun to show me. It has what appears to be Pennsylvania Rifle Works on the lock. It has an octagonal bore that I guess must have been forged over a mandrel maybe. It was in pretty used and abused shape and was the first octagonal bore I have seen on a...

    Starting a Kentucky Pistol Project

    I'm collecting parts to build my first flintlock pistol. I have built a several longrifles from precarve stocks over the years but not a pistol. I could not find an 8" barrel and had to settle for a 12" Green Mountain in 45cal. The stocks I could find were all 8" barrel channels so I'm...

    Test fired my CVA Percussion to Flint Conversion Today

    There were some recent posts about this lately that gave me the idea on doing this with a CVA barrel I have had laying around for years. Using a M10x1.25 stainless bolt and a 1/4-28 vent drilled and tapped into it worked fine as I fired a few test shots. Care must be taken to make sure the...
