    What to do with extra GPR stock

    Youth model wouldn't be a bad idea. My son is 3 and he'll need a muzzle loader soon I guess :wink:

    What to do with extra GPR stock

    I've had a Lyman GPR for over 10 years now. I bought it as a botched kit and kind of refinished it. Worked great as a beater for years and I've gotten a lot of deer with it. It always had this stupid butt pad on it from the original owner, and the stock was already cut a little bit so I didn't...

    1860 cocking - rotating cylinder problem

    Thanks guys. This helped a lot. After figuring out what the piece was called I could search the Internet and see that this was pretty common and there are some good write ups and 1-2 YouTube videos on it so feeling a little more comfortable trying to swap it out and file it. Will get 2 from...

    1860 cocking - rotating cylinder problem

    I have a Euroarms 1860 colt revolver and I have had an ongoing issue with it. When the gun is levelled and you pull back the hammer, it wont rotate the cylinder. But if you point the gun down and cock the hammer, it rotates fine. I take the cylinder out and pull the hammer back a few times and...

    Flintlock Doe

    Finally got one with the flint lock. I've gotten a bunch with my GPR, but this is the first year I got something with my Lyman trade rifle. Was about a 40 yard shot. I use conical bullets and like most times they drop in place. I hit her a smidge further back than I would like but managed to...

    How do i fix this butt plate?

    About 10 years ago I purchased a Lyman GPR kit that was half way done and botched for $150. I just kind of finished up the kit and fixed one or two things. It's been a great rifle over the years and its my go to beater hunting deer rifle. I've wanted to put a slightly more traditional butt pad...

    Anyone still huntin notice a big change this week?

    It's bad here in the PA mountains. Food is scare already. Acorn crop was almost nonexistant this year. In the mountains already as early as November deer turned non-patterned and would just roam for days moving from place to place eating what they could find and then maybe returning to a place a...
