    Nothing much to report.....

    Bingo! It's nice to have a freezer full of venison but the same freezer full of small game is just as good eating. I smiled at the post 22foul just put up remembering an article I saw many years ago in which some guy was making up all kinds of survival loads for a .444 marlin. Making his own...

    Potential Newbie Questions

    Veterans and Loyalist are probably the two best companies importing Indian made guns now. They both have priority pick of the best makers and take the time to inspect their stuff for possible problems. I'm not sure what to recommend as a choice...much will depend on personal preference. I've...

    You seriously need to corner our Teleoceras! He's our seriously demented Mr. Matchlock. You might look through some of his matchlock videos to see what it's all about...then when you've got the quivers, send him a PM. There are other groups where some of the guys seriously hunt their deer each...

    Sources for a Trade Gun

    Clay Smith is another maker of the early Carolina type trade guns. He ventures into the pained and decorated types as well that were popular with the Native warriors and hunters. Worth a look. https://claysmithguns.com/tradeguns1a.htm

    c. 1820 trae gun by Tatham & Son

    Sort of a London made copy of a light Charleville infantry musket of the late 1700's with minor changes. Not sure how taken the Canadian Native population was with French military guns but did have a history with the Tulle and other trade guns. Just found it an interesting copy with musket...

    Markings on trade musket?

    The crown with block letters BP and BV are the Birmingham nitro powder proofs for 1904-1925...another variation of the same ran from 1925 to 1954. That's way late for a true trade gun with the possible exception of African trade prior to WWI.
