    Figthorn Photos?

    I took your advice and did an inter-library loan for Kindig's "Thoughts on the Kentucky Rifle... ." It has pictures of 3 rifles attributed to Figthorn. I have tried several different searches on-line and can't seem to find any more photos. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Black Powder Substitute in flintlocks

    I have no experience either way, but the man at the place I ordered my kit from told me he uses 4F in the pan and straight Pyrodex for the charge. I hope he's right, I already bought the Pyrodex and Goex 4F.

    Thanks, would be a 6 hour drive I guess. However, they have more people there than here and I don't do well with that many folks around. I had heard of Dixons, and might even end up there sometime :idunno: :grin:

    Carving chisels for beginner

    I figure I have to start somewhere and I have boards to practice on. I surely would hate to wreck the stock that's coming. There is no bleep button in my shop. :rotf: Maybe I can do some carving on the next gun. Like how I haven't received the parts for this one yet and I'm planning the next...

    Thank you for the directions, I didn't want to buy 10 OK books to get to 1 or 2 that will give me the visual that I am looking for. I don't go to town much, but I'll check with the library. I searched on-line and lots of stuff came up but not the kind of pictures and types that I find...

    Books

    Hello, Would you folks point me in the direction of a good book of carving styles or designs that would give me ideas so that I can come up with a simple beginners subject to carve on a stock?

    Gun Barrel Question

    I don't know anything, but I say go for it. If it doesn't shoot well, bore it out to .60, every shot would then be .14 closer to where you wanted to hit :grin:

    Replacement frizzen for large Siler

    Thanks for the information. I didn't know what to expect down the road. Somebody didn't do their cyphering well and got a decent price on enough powder to " last through your grand kids" :yakyak: So I am certain that I can shoot daily if I am having the fun that I know I"ll be having once the...
