    Powder source....the good stuff

    Does anybody remember the place in Idaho that sells black powder? I think it was in Northern part of the State. I need to resupply myself. I figured it out the place is Buffalo Arms.

    Trade Pistol?

    I posted these pictures in "Pistols". This is my version of an Indian Pistol. The pistol would be made from a Northwest gun. The idea to build one came from a picture of an original in Charles Hansons book The Northwest Gun page 64.

    Making Barnett N.W. gun for Ricky

    I like the profile you did on the barrel. You cut the barrel wedding rings by hand just using a file? I'm doing the same thing on my barrel this week.

    Indian Pistol, Feather not Red Dot

    Royal Navy Sea Service Pistol

    Look up on the web Cascade Mountain Men. They are up your way. They are a black powder shooting club that's been around for over fifty years. They also have a Black powder gun show in March. You can find a lot of instructions on YouTube. You just have to look around.

    Sandcasting Flintlock Parts

    Mince meat, fruit cake and figgy pudding

    Homemade mincemeat with Elk meat was the best I had. Lodge has a cast iron pie pan but I usually use my 12" cast iron skillet. My grandmother turned me on to mincemeat. Her and I were the only ones that would eat mincemeat pies.

    Rifles of the Fur Trade

    I just posted a few pictures of this Henry New English Sroll guard in the percussion rifle topic under "Gary Ruxton" a couple days ago. Gary was the builder of this trade rifle and a Gunsmith at Green River Forge before building on his own. These guns originally cost $11.50 each new!
