    Jaeger Rifles Questions?

    Yup, it was made to shoot and I have to admit that I am getting a little antsy to try it out. Sure would make a big hole in whatever you'd hit.

    Jaeger Rifles Questions?

    Hi All, I have not been on this site for some time now. Back a few years ago I posted a picture of a Jaeger rifle that a friend of mine sold me. It had only been fired a couple of times by the builder. I still have not fired it but since I ain't getting any younger, thought I would try it...

    Perfect in everyway

    This is a hard question???? I would go for a nice fancy, hand carved, 45 or 50 caliber, Pa, Kentucky, fitted to me like a glove so that it would shoot right on at 75 yards, so that everytime I picked it up I would say Wow, what a dandy. There is just something about carrying a really pretty gun...

    enough power??

    See, I am fairly new to this site and until I joined it, I didn't know that I was using a gun that most feel is on the light side. I started about thirty years ago and fell in love with the Kentucky rifle. I looked down the muzzle of a forty-five and said to my self, I sure would hate to get hit...

    My Jaeger Big Bore Rifle

    Nice lookin gun LH. I might take my Jaeger out next week. Flintlock starts here in Pa. on the day after Christmas. I already know that I will not have as good luck as you. They have most of the deer shot off in this state. What is the weight of a 62 round ball and what charge do you use? BR

    My Jaeger Big Bore Rifle

    Hey Longhunter, Let's see a close up of your Jaeger. I saw where it knocks um down really good. The only reason I don't hunt with this gun is because the other Kentucky rifles fit and shoot so good. Everytime I think, today I'm gonna take the Jaeger, my other gun...

    My Jaeger Big Bore Rifle

    Yes, there is a story behind this gun. Aren't there always. The maker of this gun sold it to a very good friend of mine. This friend, and I used to hunt the Pa. and Maine woods when we were younger. Anyway, this guy had a Kentucky rifle made by a gunsmith up in New York state. He let me use...

    My Jaeger Big Bore Rifle

    Here are some pics of my Jaeger rifle. As you can see it is the white and I am torn between using it that way or having somekind of finish put on the barrel and lock, either by me or someone else. This gun was made by a J. Kreckel in Pa. some years back, I don't know how many. Anyway, she is a...

    Any Jaeger shooters out there??

    Does anyone use one if these cannons out there. I have one and will try to post a pic tomorrow. Really big bore. What caliber were these guns usually? This gun is in, I guess, what you guys call the white. Think I should leave it that way or play around and try to color the metal? I love the...

    Cut Flints?

    :surrender: Okay now----I have been huntin with a flintlock for around 30 years. During that time, everything I learned was trail and error. I thought I had everything down pat with these smokesticks and I have killed a pile of deer to prove it. However, when I read this thread about how many...

    I think she is long gone by now. Found that house and bought those guns and things some years back. Ya don't find stuff like that much anymore. If I remember correctly, I paid pretty good for the stuff back then. Must be around twenty years ago. Love this old junk. Big Ralph
