    Flintlock smith needed

    From what I'm seeing in the photo Is that touch hole is actually in a dam good location. Spark flame going up the pan right into the touch hole. Possibly be a very quick ignition. I'd shoot the the Ole gal first. Then make the decision to move it. At least that way when you move it and your...

    My observations on kibler colonial build.

    As stated it's more of a suggestion. I first got the barrel in and removed,was a bit nerve racking. Barrel in one hand and the stock in the other. My biggest issue was my work room upstairs has a low ceiling And I whacked the ceiling several times. Then I thought of the ram rod and put in the...

    My observations on kibler colonial build.

    I was more mentioning it for the guys building and setting the barrel for transfer marks and turning the rifle upside down and tapping the but so the tang releases and the difficulties of getting the barrel and rifle wood manipulated into two separate entities without dropping either or while...

    Slotting pin lugs

    If the gap is consistent. I would find a piece of sheet brass and make another spacer. You already have a templet. And pin or screw it to the other piece of forearm. Or get a thicker piece of brass and make a thicker spacer and replace the one that's on it. And leave your pins and lugs alone...
