    Brown Bess Carbine

    Very usefull info. I really like short smoothbores and reasoned that my woods fighting Highland ancestors would too. IMHO if it is handier and more mobile today, it was most likely thought of then and put into use as their lives depended on it.

    Two-gun shooters?

    My father was a survivalist and always incouraged us kids to be efficient with either hand. I shoot with my right eye but can shoot with either hand. The left just takes a little longer. Never could shoot two pistols at once. My grandfather( will be 90 this month) was a hell of a shot back in...

    Blue Ridge/frontier flints and sights

    I disagree with all stated. I am by no means a expert, but my experience with shooting any gun with open sights is learn your rifle. Dont touch your sights unless absolutely needed. Each rifle is like a living thing. It likes a certain load, patch size, and ball size. It also likes a certain...

    Flint too percussion

    I have a blue ridge percussion 50 I have been wanting to convert to a flint. Maybe we can just swap barrels and locks? My muzzle is coned so as to elimate the need of a short starter though. If you are interested send me a private message.

    Mowrey rifles

    Guns left in the

    I have a mowrey 32 that I left the metal in the white and lightly charred the maple stock to bring out the stripes, then oiled with dark walnut stain. Looks really sharp, but you gotta oil it or it will rust easy. Just sitting in my safe it rusts when the browned and blued barrels hold up easy...

    Pedersoli frontier

    I have a percussion frontier rifle I would like to convert to flintlock. I was under the impression I could take out the drum, replace with a liner, replace the lock and WHOLLA a flinter. Is this true? Looks like it would work but wanted to make sure. Thanks to all who responde.
