    official gun of Texas

    Arkansas (at least the Ozarks part) would have to be a shotgun as most were too poor to own an expensive rifle and a shotgun did many things. In the rest of Arkansas it would also be the shotgun do to all the duck hunting and bird hunting they do. Also if it went for the shotgun and mad...

I held gun in left hand, pulled down on spring with screwdriver in right hand while girlfriend tapped with hammer. The...

    Weird combination

    I use the loading lever on my 1851 in .44cal to load the cylinder on my 1860 snubby. The 51 barrel looks good on the birdshead grip. Any other cool combinations out there?

    Stuck wedge

    The wedge on my 1860 was so tight I could not get it out, I had to use 3 hands to get it out. Now I have scratched up the finish. How can I fill in the scratches? It's a black blue, anybody sell a bottle or repair blue.

    History correct?

    Top one is from 1855. Guy with gun got shot off but nothing to distance himself from danger so he got clobered. Hunting was more personal back then. Second painting is from 1856. Notice his knife, spear point.

    History correct?

    I use a razor blade to scrape it off, took about an hour, I hate the black coating. Yes! Finally somebody who gets it. I agree 100%. I like going to art museums and look at paintings from those time and look at the equipment they carried. Not modern painters but art that was made in that...

    Sling for muzzleloader

    I seen a sling on a Renegade that I like and was wondering where to get one. It was made of leather and it was just a pocket for the rifle butt and a leather strap that wrapped around the barrel. Do they sell them somewhere or is that something I have to make myself?

    Whats a good side by side shotgun

    Ok I want a 10 gage. Is 30 inch barrel standard? Is chrome bore recommended or not recommended? What's it matter? What choke will keep my shot in a tight group for a longer period of time. I want to knock the heads off of chickens not pick shot out of all the parts when I eat.

    Bacon

    Came to see bacon but got surprised by a very good story. Love that revolver but do you trust shooting something so old? That gun is made of iron not steel, won't it be too brittle to shoot?

    Whats a good side by side shotgun

    Are the Petersolie well made and quality? Do both barrels usually hit at same aim? I thought chokes were to determine when the cup was to leave the shot. How do they work on bp loads?
