    Trip to Cabelas!

    Had a business trip to Phoenix yesterday and I checked out the 1851s and 1860s at Cabelas! I think I am down for one, but who is the maker? I can get the guns at Midway USA (Uberti and Pietta) for a dealer discount, so the price would be comparable, I think. The .36 fits the hand better and...

    1860 army replica values?

    I'd keep the M39 under wraps, as well--they are all gone in Finland and the prices are going up. Not to mention they're great rifles.

    T/C versus CVA Perfect nipples

    Hey there, I'm a bit green in the blackpowder department! Nice to find this forum. I've got my friend's '70s T/C Hawken and I'm having problems jamming the cap on the stock nipple for a reliable ignition. Is there a difference in the two types of nipple I mentioned, or are they similar enough...
