    Wall mounted rifle display

    I have in excess of 15 long guns on display throughout my house. Plus the not visible ones that I have available to greet unwelcome visitors (although a flintlock is right there just incase I get a chance to use it…maybe…hopefully…) God Bless Texas.

    FOR SALE Euroarms Enfield Naval Pattern "2 Band" Rifle

    While the furniture is not right or correct for the WBTS use…the five groove rifling certainly is. This rifling in the ‘58 Navy rifle combine with the English Cartridge (Pritchett) bullet certainly was used to good effect. The rifle and this load was the precision rifle of the Confederate Army.

    SOLD .44 Kentucky flint pistol

    Never had the barrel out of the stock, nor do I intend to remove it. The barrel is as finely crafted as any I have ever examined. Not home today, but will remove and photograph the lock tomorrow and add the pics here. It sparks like a shooting star. Pic added of lock. Used the flash to enhance...

    SMRs and long barrels

    In modern internal ballistics the more resistance you have in the bore, the more the pressure spikes behind the bullet, this pressure spike leads to higher velocity. It also leads to less accurate (due to this: inconsistent velocity) shooting. You see this most often when using monolithic...

    SMRs and long barrels

    I’m sorry, I thought this thread was about SMR’s…but yes you are correct, the coastal forrest areas of Kentucky and Tennessee and West Virginia had all been cleared by then…

    How often do you guys take apart and oil your locks?

    Literally never. Toothbrush and a little oil when cleaning the rifle. Grease on the small edges that touch each other and back on the gun.

    SMRs and long barrels

    All interesting points. However, the old growth forests of the 18th and 19th century were much more open than what we understand as normal now. Mature forrest’s had less undergrowth and fire was the prime management mechanism, and a very good one.

    SMRs and long barrels

    The very first thing that comes to mind is that government and military buyers are never at the leading edge of anything…being mired in the past and their own prejudices is completely well documented. You sight an example of a single Govt contract in 1818. Perhaps the Indians those Derringers...

    Trade gun rear sight

    Brass rear sight on my Bess Carbine. Got it from Track. Very shallow dovetail, but it not a big deal since there is plenty of meat there. I plan to restock this gun eventually into something like a ranger carbine. (I know…whatever that is)

    Black Powder Banned at my Gun Club!

    Just another Tactical Tommy range. They don’t want people to come shoot, they want to sell their classes. Dime-a-dozen and they will be gone fairly soon just like all the others.
