    Dixon's Gunmaker's Fair is Canceled

    Bummed that is was cancelled but not surprised. It's just an hour from me. Was hoping to pick up a front sight for my $60 fleamarket flintlock. The one the Log Cabin Shop sent me falls out so I was hoping to test fit before buying another 1 that doesn't fit properly. My wife wanted to pick...

    I have this old knife, what is it?

    Old or new it looks nice good. If you didn't buy as an I investment(doesn't sound like you did), just enjoy it. My grandfather found an old Japanese sword in a barn back in the 1930's I think it was. Has some gold banding and some areas where it looks like gems once resided. One day I will...

    Powder Horn Sources?

    I bought one of off ebay. The water buffalo ones do look very different from steer horns when side by side, but usually much cheaper. Here are 2 my wife carved, not in the traditional style. She has carved many horns for native American style ceremonial use(she is part Cherokee). These are...

    Ten year old loaded Hawken?

    I bought a CVA Plainsman cheap a few months ago with a load in it. Tried compressed air (from a garage compressor)and a ball puller. No luck yet. I dream of walking around the local park(Valley Forge National Park) and finding a small cave with long rifles wrapped in oiled cloth perfectly...

    Age of black powder?

    There were a couple of the white and red hodgdon cans with powder in. The cans did not say black powder though so I let them go thinking smokeless powder. I can not remember what they said, I think "rifle powder:

    new addition - CVA Plainsman

    Picked this CVA Plainsman .50 cal last weekend at a flea market. It is still loaded, gotta fix that. Compressed air did not work. It looks to have been fired, loaded, and put away. Fouling in the bore, tiny bit of rust in the bore. The pan is pretty rusty and the front sight is broken. I...

    Age of black powder?

    Picked up some powder at an auction today. I know 1 can is a at least 7 years old because of the price tag where I buy powder. The other, I am wondering if anybody has ballpark age judging by the can(or at least the age if the can, I refill my metal cans).
