    Problem with L&R Lock

    Well, I called both Track and L&R this morning. Both were more than helpful, and the end result is that L&R is sending a new hammer. Everyone was very helpful. Thanks!

    Problem with L&R Lock

    Hey all - I just bought a rifle from TOTW, and got it yesterday. Test fired it today with a pan of powder and when I went to pull the cock back, I noticed that the flint was actually touching the pan. I thought, "That's strange", then I noticed that the cock had cracked right at the "S" curve...

    Hello everyone, im new to the flintlock game

    . ********************************************************** :shocked2: Hold on! If it's the kit I'm looking at on TC's web site, that charger you got is a pan charger - NOT a powder measure. You would fill it up with whatever powder you are using in your pan (usually ffffg (4f)) and...

    Feeling bad after hunting

    I have long felt that until you have killed your own food, you have no idea of it's true worth.

    Outside Pocket Tutorial

    Ah - the mallet. I was wondering how you got the holes transferred from the pocket to the front of the bag. Seeing as the edges of the pocket are folded under when finished, I thought the inside diameter of the hole pattern on the front flap would have to be 1/4 to 1/2 inch smaller. Now I see...

    Grouse with a .54!?

    It's legal here. As a matter of fact, most people use a .22. I don't know about other states, though. Good point. Colin

    Grouse with a .54!?

    Definitely ground shots only! lol. Sorry I didn't mention that in my original post - I am so used to hunting them with my bow that I just take it for granted that the only shot I'd take is on the ground. I got tired of spending more time hunting for my arrows than hunting for birds... :redface:

    Grouse with a .54!?

    Ok - I've got a few days till grouse season opens up here and I have a dilemma. I'm wanting to try my hand at hunting with my flintlock, but all I've got is a .54 caliber. I don't have the funds right now to plunk down $1000 or more for a nice smoothbore or even a .36 rifle, so should I give it...

    Lyman Lead

    Hey all: I was at a local gunshop yesterday, and buried in the back of the store, they had a box full of small lead ingots with "Lyman" stamped in them. They were going for $1.00 apiece. I didn't get a good look at them because I was busy keeping my 2 year old out of the spent brass, but they...

    Horn Sizer request

    Thanks, guys. There are a lot of good ideas here, and I'll have to try them. I did try to locate a local resource for wood turning, but have not been able to locate anyone with a lathe. I turned to the forum here as a last result. Thanks for the ideas. I don't have many power tools, but I'll...
