    lightening a trigger

    I would like to have someone slick up the trigger on a woodsrunner. It is not bad but it is a little heavier than my other 2 single triggers. Is there a good fellow i could send the lock to to get it down to around 2.5 pounds? Thanks

    Preferred means of attaching a powder horn?

    I have mine on a leather strap. I wear another around my neck with my primer charger and a combo tool I built that is 120 grain powder measurer that holds a patched ball . sort of a speed loader

    Kibler Fowling Piece

    Taking a flintlock i to the RSA

    I have a moose hunt in Canada in September and am pretty sure they do not consider a flintlock a gun so in and out should be no problem. I have a hunt booked next year in South Africa. I have not had any luck figuring out getting through customs. The rifle does not have a serial number or I...

    Kibler fowler, a couple of photos,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    I bought an October country flint lock last year. $3,750.00 and about a year wait. I have built one of each of the Kibler kits. They are just as pretty and shoot just as good as the OC rifle. I had bought 3 OC rifles and they are mighty fine guns but the kibler is for sure a bargain for what you...

    Kibler fowler, a couple of photos,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    I have built (sorry put together) three of your rifle kits this year and have a fowler coming next week. I have learned a lot doing it and would have most likely never messed with trying to build a flint lock if your kits were not available. Thanks for what you do I truly enjoy hunting with your...

    can’t decide about swapping stocks

    I put together a woodsrunner kit a couple of months ago. Turned out nice but the carving is driving me nuts. I never use any oil on any of my BP rifles,. After cleaning I wipe them down inside and out with bear grease. I am old and do not want to change how I maintain my guns after 60 plus years...

    Kibler .54 eater pig

    The heat let up a little this afternoon and the temptation to hit the woods with my Kibler .54 was just too much. It is about a half a mile walk to the creek bottom from where I parked and even though it had cooled down to 93, I was still wondering what was wrong with me as I was soaked through...

    Another Kibler

    I have read from several folks that they had the same problem and went with a thicker patch and it fixed it. I ordered some .018 patches and will give that a try before sending the barrel back.

    Another Kibler

    Finished another Kibler kit. This one is a .58 Colonial with a discount stock. It had a couple of inclusiins, so I wanted to make it really dark. 2 coats of aqua fortis and 2 coats of tannic aid turned the whole thing jet black. Took a couple of hours of scrubbing with a 3-M pad to get some...

    How long would you go when using spit patches without concern?

    I have always used pre-lubed patches. 50 years ago I made them myself now I buy them from October Country. I will leave an unfired rifle over night but If I have fired it during the day, It gets cleaned as soon as I leave the woods. May not be necessary but I have some really old guns that still...

    Thoughts on Browning a Kibler SMR Lock?

    Obatex Black powder

    Years ago I had October Country build me a .69 caliber sporting rifle to take to Africa in hopes of killing a Cape Buffalo. Laws change often over there and Black Powder became almost impossible to have legally. I have had the opportunity to hunt there often and have killed a lot of critters...
