    New Guys: Tom Fuller Black English Flints are a must!

    I thought to myself, flints are flints until I just got an order of BEF's from Tom Fuller. Compared to others I have gotten from other vendors, there is no comparison. Anyone new to the sport, do yourself a great favor and get some. It will save you a lot of headaches as you try to figgure...

    Help with T/C - U-View Capper (pistol style)

    I recently purchased a "Cash Style" capper from a catalog sales site that is made by T/C and is a modern copy of the Cash Pistol Capper. Question is: How in in the heck do you load this thing? I had envisioned that the T/C center logo screwed off and you could place a number of caps in it with...

    Thimble sling clamp for GPR

    sorry to reply so late, back from a long absence. I have one on my GPR that is from RMC. Used the same sling shown above to slip over the but-stock, and the clamp on the thimble. You just have to buy the whole "kit" and use half of it. Actually going to put one on another gun (CVA)that I...

    white lightnin' liner for gpr?

    :youcrazy: (But please don't take this icon as an insult to anyone who has posted valuable information on this thread) Why not just get the coned liner from RMC that is already tapped for the metric threads of the GPR? It is an excellent upgrade to the stock item, and will set you back little...

    Inlines as intro to sidelocks?

    I fell for the hype as an alternative to my shotgun hunting. Nobody I knew hunted with BP guns. Got the bug in me after a trip with a "shirt tail relative" who had a sidelock. Said "Hey, this is cool, but a flinter would be even better". Bought one, found this forum, haven't even considered...

    Field Dressing a Deer - How Do You Do It?

    agree with SK's advice for the top end, but as I learned it, splitting the pelvis is unnecessary and also opens things up where you have a better chance of getting leaves/dirt/etc. in it when draging. I only carry a small folding knife for cutting around the anus, and the rest is done with a...

    new GPR - dissapointed - questions

    When I got mine, both pins were exactly the same, and had the same problem. I contacted them and got new pins shipped to me. When I got them, both were the same again. I contacted them, and they wanted the gun back. Sent it back, and got it returned with the correct keys (marked "f" and...

    Taking care of the inevitable "wounds"

    I have two favorites that feel are very important: 1. super glue (yes, someone said it before, it is worth saying again) 2. duct tape (makes one heck of a bandage) lately I have been considering some of the "liquid bandages" since they have alcohol as either a propellant or to keep it in a...
