    barrel lengths

    If your 6 foot tall, have you ever loaded a gun with a 8 foot barrel? I am sorry in your opinion I should be comfortable loading a barrel at eye level.I stand at 5'4" and a gun with a 14" pull and 42" barrel is 5 feet long. Kind of uncomfortable to load. I never said anything about period...

    barrel lengths

    I was looking at TOW's website and pondering their french fusil kits. I was thinking of making one in 54 rifled. They only offer these with a 44" barrel, which is way long for me (I am fairly short). I was thinking more along the lines of 36" or maybe even 32". My question is will cutting down...

    Lead melting to run balls

    I have been thinking of molding my own balls and have been looking at different melting pots. I noticed some of the electric ones had a adjustable temp. Does the temp of the molten lead really matter? Can you get it too hot? Does it work best at a certain temp? How do you tell how hot it is if...

    swivel breech rifles

    I have been wanting a swivel breech rifle for some time. I have found a Pedersoli in 54 and wondered if anyone could give me more info about them and first hand opinion. I have also heard of one made by Hopkins and Allen in 45. Was wanting to know the same about it. Anyone know where one might...

    Jaeger rifle

    Thinking about getting a Jaeger rifle, but I am having problems finding a maker. Anyone got a suggestion? I have been looking at the pedersoli but I like to get calibers I already own, and 54 is not one. Thanks in advance. ::

    Big Bore 75, How hard was his kit? Was the stock pre-inletted? How much fitting was involved? Thinking about ordering a kit but I am terrible at fitting locks. Wood is really hard to put back. I wish they made wood welding rod. :: :thumbsup:

    More Rifle Shoppe

    You should be happy you got it at all. Twenty weeks is a fast turnout for them. I speak from experience with them, and am surprised at how fast you got it. I personally will never order from them again. :m2c: :results:

    The Rifle Shoppe

    Can't complain enough about these guys. I recently sold a scottish musket to a fellow in Nova Scotia that I got from T.R.S.. It was unused and in new condition. Well when he got it the forend was all split. He disassymbled it to try and glue it and the barrel channel and lock area were filled...

    Scottish flintlock pistol

    I have two pair of these that I got from Middlesex. One pair is the Murdoch copy, the other is the Military version. I have only shot the Military ones, and one calipers at .509 and the other at .512. Middlesex says the calibers vary from 50 to 52. I use 35 grains of 2f goex, .490 balls and...

    Kid's first flintlock

    I too have witnessed this with kids, Othern. I would say get them a flintlock to begin with so they can grow up shooting with the flash instead of struggling with it as many adults do, including myself. If they can shoot a modern rifle, they will have no problems with a percussion later on...

    barrel finish

    This question has probably been answered before, but here goes. I am finishing a in-the-white canoe gun for my wife and I want the barrel to have that grey old patina look. How do I achieve this? I have a couple of finished guns that look this way, but don't know how they do this. I seem to...

    Big smoothbore pistols

    I have two flintlock 62 smoothbore pistols. One I got from Jackie Brown. It was around $550 with shipping,and I actually like the feel of it better than my other one. The other is a Matt Avance . It was a little more. Both are nice shooters. Matt's is finished a little nicer, but Jackie's is a...
