    Richard Smith barrels

    I just picked up these 2 Richard Smith barrels this weekend and would like any info y’all know about them. Both are tapered 36” and about 1 in 68” twist rate. One of them is for a full stock Leman project and I’ll have to come up with what to do with the other one.

    Thoughts on TVM Natchez Poor Boy

    That is one that is ready to ship out. It is very much like the one I have order. That one is 45 cal 42”, dark brown finish on plain maple with aged steel. 14” LOP. The only difference in mine will be an upgraded lock. I am getting the Chambers Late Ketland. The toe plate extends past the end...

    Thoughts on TVM Natchez Poor Boy

    My Natchez Poor Boy is not slated to start until maybe July. I am headed down there next weekend to finalize my choices and fit with Matt and pick up some parts for a future Leman build. I am hoping there will be a Poor Boy finished or under construction while I’m there. If there is, I’ll...

    TVM Natchez Poor Boy???

    I have one on order in 45 cal. I handled several of their rifles at the shop in Natchez and they all looked and felt awesome. Great folks and talented builders there. You might call them on the price though, the listed prices say “good through Dec 2020”. The cost of the Poor Boy was slated to...

    Traditions Hawken Rusted Clean Out Screw

    I had one that I decided to strip and brown that the clean out screw wouldn’t budge on until it was heated with a propane torch. Screwed out easily while hot enough for plum browning.

    One of Bob McBrides Black Powder TV videos covers this topic very well. It’s worth watching before you buy.

    CVA Mountain kit question

    Several things I see (if I’m looking at the same kit), I do believe that is a replacement barrel, the under lugs In the kit look like the 1” and the barrel dovetails look to be 3/8”. Missing wedge and maybe the tang bolt. Ramrod thimbles don’t match. All that said, the parts needed can be found...

    What trigger to use?

    I am leaning more towards a single trigger. Is there a specific type that would be more accurate for a transitional period rifle? (straight, curved or curled)..I am using the Manton locks because they would be of the Time period when percussion came around, 1820-1830’s. (I think).

    What trigger to use?

    I have both flint and percussion CVA Kentucky 45 cal rifles that I am getting ready to re stock into maple blanks. Both will get LR Manton locks and I want to also upgrade the triggers. Looking for recommendations on what trigger would be most appropriate for a 1820’s style short barreled full...

    Your best deal acquiring a muzzleloader, either trade or purchase

    I have done pretty well at local gun shows, estate sales and even a call in radio show over the years. More recently I found an invest arms Cabelas Hawken 50 cal in great shape with an excellent bore for 165.00 but the best part of the deal was that it has Lyman peep rear sight and the...
