    squirrel rifle

    Nice thread resurrection. I’ll have to give this one some thought…before I put down my considerations.

    Making stuff

    Threads like this are intimidating…cuz I get to show the whole community my lack of skill. One of the most fulfilling facets of this hobby is making and creating. I’ve made several types of shooting bags. I love making my own powder horns. I’ve made several knives…a shooting frock (I really like...

    For anyone considering an Indian manufactured Flintlock

    To my recollection…I’ve really only disagreed with you in this thread. On other topics, in other threads, we’ve been very harmonious with strong agreement…

    @dave_person I have read many of your posts. You are a fine genuine person, I greatly appreciate your knowledge, and what you’ve given to this community. Wish I had half your capabilities…

    Going from wheel weight to pure ML lead. ¿Possible?

    This will probably sound much rougher than it was… I shot wheel weight lead as a kid. 5 gallon bucket of wheel weights was free for the taking, at the local down town tire shop…just had to ask. We lived on the other side of town, 5 miles out of the city limits. It took me 3 days to get that...

    What options?

    Aside from OP’s post, & Texian…that’s about it. We don’t have the selections that we had years ago…most of this market has gone the way of the in-line. I love getting getting a new muzzleloader every now & again…but not a lot of options for brand new, unless you consider: Custom, Semi-Custom, &...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    It was the Kibler extra grade. Here’s an image that I posted elsewhere. I need to stain the ramrod…it looks weird not stained.

    pan powder?

    For flintlocks, the only powder that I’ve found to be reliable at all is blackpowder

    Tallow River Trappers will be holding their Trapper Days Rendezvous this weekend…I’ll be there with the wife & grandkiddos at some point this weekend.

    Going from wheel weight to pure ML lead. ¿Possible?

    Here is what I found, because I’m curious as well. Refining of bullion To remove and recover remaining impurities from lead bullion, either pyrometallurgical or electrolytic refining is used; the choice between the two methods is dictated by the amount of bismuth that must be eliminated from...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    I love an antique finish on a barrel, almost as much as I love a browned barrel. But a good job on the antiqued barrel is far easier to achieve. I watched a lot of videos on YouTube on how to antique a barrel…great place to start. Kibler even has a video. I called Kibler and ordered a solution...

    For anyone considering an Indian manufactured Flintlock

    @dave_person @Loyalist Dave and any other armorers You guys seem to have the most reliable information. I have some questions… Are the issues you see with India made firearms due to poor quality of product, poor owner treatment…or both? How does Pedersoli compare? Or do you feel that due to...

    This right here, makes sense. ….Course @Loyalist Dave has proven to be a reliable source for so much information, and direction…

    For anyone considering an Indian manufactured Flintlock

    Anecdotal stories…no factual evidence…so again nothing…the internet can be so frustrating. Why the intense hate against a fairly decent product? I’ll be the first to admit that India made guns are a work in progress. And there are only a couple of importers that have mostly solved the quality...
