    1750 period rifle

    Yes, I have read it but not in the last few decades. The Deerslayer is my favorite of Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales as it takes place on "the Glimmerglass" which is Otsego Lake about 30 minutes from my house. Grew up swimming and boating on the lake, often anchoring at the sunken island area...

    1750 period rifle

    While far more contemporary than any of us, Cooper was born 1789 and Pathfinder was written 1840. I would have to think that he could have been influenced by "more modern firearms"

    SOLD ATTN: Round ball casters

    Are the boxes of round balls shown included? If they are, are they full, nearly full etc? Looks like a good deal.

    SOLD Pietta 1861 Colt Navy

    Prayers for your friend. Hope he has contacted the VA. It is my understanding that many cancers qualify Vietnam veterans for immediate full disability / pensions. Had one friend that fought it and recovered for a bit. Did eventually take him. Very sad. God bless all our veterans who often...

    How do you eat them

    I was trying to edit my post but system isn't allowing me so I will continue.... My mother was one of those individuals that rarely used any spices. Her comment was that spices were added to meat (or any food) to cover up the taste when it was rotting. A few years ago, after my father had...

    How do you eat them

    I take it then, if someone visited your home they would find no salt, pepper, ketchup, mustard, salsa, maple syrup, or spices of any kind? I have known a few people that don't like any of the peppery spices but do enjoy some of the sweeter additives. I have met very few that don't use at least...

    As none of the moderators have commented yet, Rule #23 for posting ads requires that you post one photo of the item and a piece of paper with your user name and the date on it to verify that you have the item and have not posted photos clipped from elsewhere. It appears to be nice rifle at a...

    Hello from Powderhorns and More

    Welcome to the forum. Love your comment "for now". Live a little over two hours east of you. Nanny York has found one thing it excels at: people leaving. Recent headline showed we are the number one state in people moving out! Discovered another company that sells leather that had been here...

    Need advice on collection of 4 unopened 1970s kits I just purchased

    My suggestion is to sell them as kits as this will net you the best return for your investment. Regardless of all the individuals who don`t like the CVA kits there are those interested in learning about traditional black powder guns but are not ready to drop north of $1000 to learn. I have no...

    Steel Tubing, Aluminum Tubing, Black Locust, A .45 Barrel Stub, Golf Balls and Gun Powder.........What Could Possibly Go Wrong.

    Mythbusters built a cannon out of duct tape. Of course they got into trouble when their firing a genuine black powder cannon for "base line results" sent the ball through someone's house quite a ways away.

    Pietta .44 navy?

    Welcome to the forum! 6 guns for $600 was most likely a screaming deal unless the four you sold were in-lines that we don't talk about here or were rust buckets but even some rust buckets are more than worth $100 each in salvageable parts. If you haven't looked it up already, your pistol was...
