    Der Fett' Deutscher's lockwork

    The particular musket is from Neumann's collection and I believe appears in the NRA magazine article on RevWar muskets that's been linked elsewhere around these parts. The problem with the majority of Germanic/Prussian/Hessian style muskets is the variation within even a standardized type - the...

    Der Fett' Deutscher's lockwork

    D.F.D & M.B. Those 'cow's foot' buttstocks can be found on alot of pre-Seven Year's War muskets made throughout the western Germanies.

    Der Fett' Deutscher's lockwork

    Just some shameless bragging about one of resident Jaeger expert's work outside his normal projects - two of three 1740 Potsdam locks built up by him from TRS kits. Very nice work! A more detailed review will follow, in due course. Mind you, 1740 locks have been 'recycled' into late 18th...

    Cannon or mortar gizmo?

    I believe the specific name is 'Gunner's Quadrant' - could be anything from a tripod-mounted machinegun up to heavy ordnance, but if it's only 2-3" long I'd lean towards smaller pieces.

    anyone shooting authentic arms?

    The North-South Skirmish Association routinely certifies original arms for competition. There's a fellow name Hoyt that lines many of the barrels. Check here [url] http://www.n-ssa.org/phpbb/index.php?sid=739bc852d9fc637ce574cf97f5fadc4e[/url]

    Casting Brass Parts?

    My memory is shot and I've come up with nothing on searches. Can anyone recommend a source of custom cast brass parts? There's a fellow who lives in NE PA that shows up at the Dixon's Faire, but for the life of me I can't remember his name. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks. Look at the cascable, that's weird enough to be a distinct identifier.

    Mystery Cannon in Bulgaria

    Yes, probably an 8lbr Does anyone else think that the rifling (or what we can see of it) looks notional, if not simply non-existent?
