    First smoothie

    Thanks Le Grand, I was aware of them both. I was leaning towards NSW. What do you all think of the kits from Track of the wolf. I have never built a kit before but I would try it if I can't find a ready made gun that I like. Marshall

    Hey Hanshi, Oh, I've watched this forum for a couple of years. I know who the jacka$$e$ are. To be fair TG was giving his opinion to me, but didn't like it when I pointed out that he did not answer my question. Hell I have thick skin. Thanks for the welcome. Marshall

    First smoothie

    That's what I was lookin for. I never said I was stuck on sitting fox. I simply asked a question about this maker. I was already looking at a NSW kit or in the white or a kit from TOTW. I leave options open and research the best product before I buy. That means asking questions. Don't read so...

    Replacement lock for Pedersoli KY

    Well this was an idea that I was toying with. I really liked the feel of the Pedersoli but the lock was manure. It destroyed flints, failed to spark half of the time and was generally junk. I would still have the gun if it was a cap lock, but I wanted a flinter. I am not new to bp guns. I have...

    Replacement lock for Pedersoli KY

    I had a Pedersoli KY rifle that I sold. I liked the feel of the gun but the flint lock on the thing was a little less than reliable. It sparked alright but not where I would trust it to hunt with. I was thinking about getting a Pedersoli PA but I would like a more reliable lock. Thus the question.

    Replacement lock for Pedersoli KY

    I was wanting a better lock for this gun that was NOT Pedersoli made. Like the way L&R makes replacement locks for traditions, I was wondering if anyone made a lock that would fit a Pedersoli even if it needed a little fitting.

    GPR vs. Hawkin

    Hey all. I have played with civil war weapons for about 13 years but I am new to pre war guns. That being said I would like to know the difference in looks between a GPR and an actual Hawkin rifle. Like I said I am new to this era and am trying to learn :wink: Thanks in advance...

    Tommy, thanks for the welcome. Honestly I was leaning toward the two rifles you mentioned. And as far as the gruff comments, they don't bother me.
