    Building short N.W. Trade Gun ...

    I have to say that after reading this thread I kinda have the itch to build one myself. I think I'd like a 20 bore. What should I look for in a barrel blank? I guess I have to make the breach plug myself?

    Need a little help

    If I listened to the voice in my head I’d be hungry,naked and homeless but I’d have some pretty cool guns.

    Best lead for casting ball?

    The plant manager where I worked years ago couldn’t tell the difference between copper and aluminum by looking at it. I thought he was joking when he asked if I was sure about it. He wasn’t smiling thought so I figure he really didn’t know.

    I got one at a flea market. Cast iron with a wooden handle.

    "Restoring" a basket case original.

    When ZZ Top was looking for Caddy to turn into their Cadzilla they found a near mint car. When they took it to the shop to have the work done the guy said you’re not going to cut up this car. To which they replied “your torch or mine?”

    Kibler's Longrifles new product announcement tomorrow

    The carving is very nice but personally I’m not interested in a carved stock. I don’t condemn those folks that are. I was hoping the new announcement would be a trade gun. 😀

    Barber pole stripe on a ramrod.

    I was told once that it tempered the wood. In my mind I was going yeah right. The guy told me to use a cotton cord soaked in kerosene. Never did it as I don’t care for the look.

    Wad carrying?

    An Altiods tin will leak at the hinge if you have liquid in them.

    Thank you. That was very helpful.

    I think I need a new lock.

    I finally got a chance to put a longer flint in and smoothed the spring and the frizzen where they contact. Correct me if I’m wrong but now I’m thinking I might need to heat and bend the **** so that the flint will hit farther down the frizzen. First pic is where the flint makes first contact...
