    Iron vs Brass Furniture on Period Correct Rifles

    Killing the day watching YouTube videos and I hear a lot of “internet experts” saying iron is more correct than brass, especially on later period (late fur trade to plains) guns. I always was under the impression that iron, or steel, was way more expensive than brass. Can someone set me straight...

    Antique Firearms

    Must be 1865 as per the forum rules as they exist now. “Original guns” will open too many doors as I have an original TC Renegade with a 4 digit s/n. That makes is like 50 years old! Oh, and semi auto’s existed long before 1933 btw, in fact before 1900. You near sighted folks don’t want this...

    Short barrel muzzleloaders and accuracy.

    Google Idaho Lewis videos and watch him shoot stock TC Renegades out to distances such as 1200 yards. Only change is the sights. Idaho Ron does likewise but with Green Mtn barrels on his Hawkens. Walk

    Authentic Mountain Man Experience?

    Lol. I fear no animal in our northern boreal forest, of which I could only estimate that I’ve spent about 2 years worth of my entire life in a tent in their environment. Could well be double that in fact. No need to fear, but respect is healthy. Walk

    Shooting all by one’s lonesome

    Ahh, yes.. common sense… the answer to all things.. but what is common sense? Common sense is nothing but your personal life experiences to that moment in time. As such, no two people have the same “common sense”. I’ll just let that sit and soak for a while. Walk

    Shooting all by one’s lonesome

    For most of my traditional ml shooting life I shot alone. Hard to get peoples interest where there is no special hunting season set aside. Our neighbours to the West used to have a special season, then it was canceled and a bunch of guns hit the market. I bought a mint TC Hawken fully complete...
