    So I had a piece of 4140 hex bar that I picked up years ago and decided to go ahead and use it. It is a 31 cal. 100% built by hand by me. The stock is from an English walnut that grew on my place and I milled it on a sawmill that I built from scratch. I still need to brown all the steel and I am...

    Tradition rifle kit

    My first ml build was a traditions Kentucky kit, it is good and a reliable rifle. I will not say it is the best and they have some issues, but they are ok. The issues I had were, I don't like the two piece stock, and they made my front stock piece an eighth of an inch too short, I used it for...

    An Abomination? Not For Sensitive Viewers

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    I needed a small piece of brass, so I went to the scrap yard to rummage through their stuff, I got a piece of flat 3/16 x 2 x14 long and a bunch of round bar that was there. Paid a dear $5.50 for it, and noticed the end of the long brass round bars was all dirty and when I knocked the dirt off...

    You almost have a matchlock! That's a bummer

    Sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself!

    We may have to discuss your "proven" browning methods. Great story! I had a similar thing happen with a screw and found it later in the washer, it must have landed in my shirt pocket.
