    Lock Binding

    if it will trigger outside the gun with ease but binds in the gun then you probably have the lock plate too tight probably need a small shim in there somewhere

    Advice on getting started crafting.

    Just start making stuff. Know your first attempt will never look as sharp as the 10th and the 10th will look like crap compared to your 100th. My other half has the crafting bug and they say to just do it. Doesn't have to look good. The guy who sells masterpieces started out making projects...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Today I cleared the fire channel for the Maynard Model 2. Still gonna sell it but I need to get some musket caps and some Maynard brass so I can shoot it a few times before it leaves my care. I mean I really should fire it. Thing probably hasn't seen a bullet in a hundred years. Would be a...

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    I got the fire channel clear! I had a couple smart ideas in a row. First I made a homemade musket cap out of tinfoil and the guts from 3 CCI #11's and popped the cap. Nice bang. Then I went at the fire port with WD40 and a needle then with butane. After futzing with it for 20 more minutes I got...

    Traditions Blunderbuss heavy load

    I load 50 grains of 3f Goex in mine and that is plenty powder. That short barrel doesn't need a lot of powder to make it go. While I know I could likely hunt with the blunderbuss, I would be much more comfortable using my .56 renegade or the trusty dusty old .410 Pardner suppository gun for...

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    I didn't even think of that. You are probably right. And I am willing to wait. Long as it doesn't sell I have a Maynard Model 2 in my safe and that is pretty spiffy.

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    I still have this old rifle, I now have a hard case I will send it in. Again I can not believe the really good condition this old gun is in. A good set of tools and 15-30 minutes fiddling with the fire port and you have a functional Maynard on your hands. I do not have a good set of tools or the...

    Do you gut your deer?

    gut immediately and I load the empty cavity with ice bags until it has cooled down. Once it has cooled it hangs for 4 days before I butcher it out. I used to take it to the meat processer but by the time the butcher gets his cut I spend more than beef prices on the finished product and they...

    Times change

    At 56 I am a Spring Chicken it seems. But, I still remember a dime to make a call or send a letter. 8 tracks and reel to reel. :) 8mm home movies and Polaroids. Mainstreet had prosperous shops and the best Taffy was made in one of those shops in nearly every town. Computers were for the...

    gun safes and cap and ball stories...

    Yep, My daddy always said leave the robber something to take. Keeps him from getting frustrated and taking it out on the property and gets them out of the house faster. I got a couple of P.O.S. easy to find pieces in the house. :) And the serial numbers written down. Might be worthless...

    gun safes and cap and ball stories...

    that sucks big time as for the pistol not performing properly....you have to load them very meticulous and not have any oil at all in that chamber. I got a pistol I have left loaded for years and due to my very strict loading method I know for a fact my revolver is going to go boom with the...

    How long before a touch hole needs replaced ?

    when you do decide it is time to replace that liner, get a platinum lined one and you won't have to worry about it again
