    Traditions Frontier Kit Build First shot

    It took a bit to build this kit. I've never done anything like this before. The stock still needs to be stained and barrel blued, but I was really excited to fire it.

    WITHDRAWN Traditions 50 cal Trapper

    335$ Firm shipped to your door where allowed. In nice condition has a few. Handling marks nothing bad. Bore is great with the exception of a streak of brown. I found a piece of ? material inside just down from the muzzle. That spot just about gone with a little CRC power lube wipe. I figured...

    First kit build

    I have owned several ML's in the past. Both Hawkens, (percussion) one in 50 Cal and the other in 54 Cal. I decided I wanted a FL, so I started looking at my options. I decided to start out on the low side and ordered a Traditions Kentucky Rifle kit from ML.com. Well, it arrived yesterday and...

    Traditions Kentucky Pistol accuracy?

    It's almost time to add a pistol to my armory. I shoot NMLRA matches so accuracy is a must. Who has first hand experience with this pistol? Would I be wasting my time and money with such a cheap priced gun? Has anyone competed with one? Opinions?

    Traditions 24in flintlock deer hunter.

    1in48 twist 24in barrel and a plasticstock and fiberoptic sights. This thing is a sin 10x over. Still love it tho. I bought it on sale brand new for 300$ honestly too much but well worth it to me. The lock is good sparks very well. I found on mine the hammer sits a little too close to the...

    .62 cal speed loaders available

    Tonight a visit to Bass Pro for one thing led to a search for other things not necessarily on “the purchase list,” but things I’ve wondered about and tried elsewhere without success. One such thing is finding a speed loader for the .62 rifle and I suppose for any .62 caliber firearm. The ones...

    Need help with a Traditions percussion Hawken kit

    I am part way through putting my Traditions Hawken kit together, and what might be typical, there are a lot of problems. Biggest besides a general lack of consistency is the lock. Fixed a problem tonight where one of the screws was pulling the entire thing in too far due to lack of support...

    SOLD Kit Stock for CVA/Jukar/ Traditions Kentucky Pistol

    Here's an unfinished stock for a CVA/ Jukar type Kentucky pistol. Most of the inletting is already done. A CVA Kentucky lock fits mostly, and the barrel channel fits the flats of a .45 Jukar rifle barrel, although all the inletting just needs some final fitting. Slight chip missing from the...

    What Does This Match - Historically Speaking.

    Howdy, y'all, I'm new to flintlocks, and bought a Traditions Frontier .50 cal. for reenacting. I use it for salutes and battles with the Texas Army. We beat Santa Ana again this year at San Jacinto. I've seen comments regarding quality of Traditions. I bought this online, and it fires powder for...

    SOLD Flintlock .50 cal, Traditions for sale/ trade.

    I purchased a Traditions Pennsylvania rifle a while ago hoping to be well enough to get out and shoot it. Well, that's not happening. Here's the problem..... if I sell or get a decent trade worked out it needs to be near the Louisville Ky area. The rifle is the upgraded version with several...

    SOLD Traditions 50 Caliber Flintlock Pistol $180

    Traditions 50 caliber flintlock pistol for sale. It works as it should and throws very good sparks. The blueing is good except a little has been lost around touch hole on barrel (this can be seen in close up picture of touch hole). The touch hole liner comes out easy for cleaning.

    Traditions Kentucky Rifle Help

    I bought this rifle preassembled. I was wondering if any of these issues could be fixed? I will be using this rifle this upcoming deer season and for target shooting. Will these issues affect performance and or safety? The gap on stock joining plate is about 1/16 of an inch on the the side...

    I have a used .36 cal Traditions Shenandoah Flintlock Rifle for $550. Has a 1:48 twist and a 33.5" barrel, adjustable buckhorn rear sight, brass blade front sight.

    Opinion of Traditions "Trapper" pistol

    General opinion of the Traditions .50 caliber (percussion) "Trapper" Pistol"? Here in Idaho I can only use it for target shooting. (or as back-up to my .45 caliber 1911 for self defense) It is not a legal hunting weapon. (except for a tree'd Mountain Lion/Puma/Cougar if/when hunting with...

    Issues... and I'm upset !!!

    Any help here is greatly appreciated. I've had a traditions percussion woodsman for 10 plus years that I traded for. Got rid of a pistol I didn't like and picked up a great looking, nicely made piece of history (sort of). It turned out not to be very reliable at the time, put it away for several...
