    Smooth Rifle

    When we were doing rondyvous, I had to take the rear sight off for smoothbore matches. Shooting rbs against larger bore smoothies, this little 28g would shine. I felt like I was cheating.

    Target Rifle by J.H. Rector of Syracuse, NY

    Beautiful rifle, a real treasure! I always felt that the .40 caliber is the one to get!

    Smooth Rifle

    My 28g/54cal smooth rifle from a Jim Chambers kit put together by Mark Wheland. I am patiently waiting on a Kibler Fowler kit in 20g. I hope that I can get the beautiful results that Mark got.

    Pondering a flintlock. Educate me.

    I second the choice for a .40cal, no recoil and very accurate.

    Smooth bore metal finish

    What type of metal preparation will be needed on the Kibler Fowler barrel before your desired finish? Can you draw file a round barrel?

    Flat spots on tumbled balls

    I too have a lot of free time. I tried weighing my rbs and powder charges and after a while I came to the realization that the distances I shoot, 100 yards or less, it really doesn’t matter what the balls weigh or a grain or two difference in the powder charge. I don’t want to make my...

    Triple Sight Picture

    I have peep sights on several of my unmentionables and the last time I used them they worked fine. The past year I have only been shooting my bp firearms and I never thought of putting a peep sight on one of those. There is a forum member selling peep sights that work on ml firearms, I might...

    Triple Sight Picture

    One year ago, I had cataract surgery on both eyes. My long distance vision is great and I use 2.5 readers for book reading. When I try to get a good sight picture with my long guns, things don’t work out so well. I see the distant target well but my front and rear sights are double or triple...

    Knife/Short Sword

    I picked up this knife at a ml show about 10 years ago. All the seller knew about it was that it was found in an attic in Pennsylvania. I got it for a song. Can anyone help me in identifying the maker and the year?

    Looking for a Builder or Recommendations

    That is a very nice budget for your first muzzleloader. You can find a beautiful gun or excellent builder on this forum with money left over.

    Uberti pock mark in frame

    So Mike, if you were selling a pistol that had a casting void, would you disclose it?

    Uberti pock mark in frame

    If it were mine, I would send it back. You never know that sometime in the future you might want to sell it and that might cause a problem with the buyer.

    Here is What I Love About Muzzleloading

    I belong to a gun club with an indoor range and a 800 yard range. I keep paying my yearly dues but I haven’t shot there in years. It is really easy for me shooting off my back deck. As Hickcock45 would say “Life is Good”.
