    SOLD PORTMANTEAU

    Leroy - Cutfingers, American Mountain Men, #1570 I dropped off these websites for several years, then returned a year or so ago. I've seen several pieces in person made by Cutfingers over the last 25-30 years. If your looking for correctness and quality, here's the man to talk to. He is well...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    "Longcruse" I see you have the Colorado State Muzzleloading Association listed on your reply. I was one of a half dozen that rebuilt this group in 1973 (was about to go under with less than a dozen or so members). Still low in numbers from the earlier year when over 1,200 dues paying members...

    $1,000 budget (set on stone): What should I recommend?

    The parts we are finding shortages on are Hawken and Leman trigger guards and butt plates (good quailty castings not the China stuff).

    $1,000 budget (set on stone): What should I recommend?

    The biggest problem today is finding all the parts to assemble a complete gun. When the government pays workers to stay home, suppliers run out of goods. We (GRRW Collectors Association) have been chashing parts for the last year to have material available to assemble our ordered firearms...

    hello from Colorado

    What part of Colorado do you live in? I lived near Estes Park for 20 years, started the muzzleloading club "Buckhorn Skinners" in 1973 (and its still operating today). When I hunt I go to old area 20 (near Estes Park) for best results, would need to get permission as most of this area is...

    Finally got to burn some powder in my 1851 navy

    Mike's prices are very fair, the only thing he doesn't do is checking the bores on the cylinder, doesn't have those cutting dies needed. Now I have to run someone down (gunsmith) that provides this service on the cylinder. My Colt Navy will be at Mike's house tomorrow (4 to 6 weeks till his...

    Original Trade Gun/Fowler barrel profile?

    I was looking for this picture that Curly G. gave Hanson years ago. I couldn't say if it is correct or not, but interesting to look at. When one looks at the different suppliers, some have used these pictures, just changed the verbiage.

    Value of original 1851 Navy

    Over the years we have sold many of these revolvers, its all about condition and the person wanting the firearm. Numbers matching and condition will tell you what your dealing with. Look on the auction houses websites for a good idea for value. Buck

    Original Trade Gun/Fowler barrel profile?

    In 70 years of looking at antique firearms I can only remember a few with the turtle front sight they were either on late Chief's or NW guns (not many as I recall). Just a few but like said on later smoothbores ... One was on a Leman NW trade gun, Hanson figured it was in the 1850-60 era. I...
