With the natural movement of a wood stock with humidity, wouldn't that effect the sight once you had zero? I thought that was why these where attached to the metal tangs on guns, a more stable surface to mount on? Just curious.

I purchased this from RotoMetals a year or so ago. Never used it. It's their 99% pure lead. Used to just cut it into smaller pieces with a bandsaw. It's yours for $110 shipped to your door. Feel free to email or pm with questions, Thanks

Hello, As the title says , had this mould made for a rifle I don't have anymore. Has never even been used to cast a single ball. Comes with Tanners handle. On the website this would be over $70. I'll sell to your door for $50. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks again,

The Japanese Bess's had this odd angled look to the bow of the triggerguards. Did you straighten it? If not, I agree it's a Pedersoli and not Japanese. Nice job bringing her back to life!

Referring to fully using technology to create the kit that he does. He's doing things that others never have using technology that has been around, just not necessarily used to produce a muzzleloaders. That's why I think it the most modern made gun in the industry, contemporarily speaking. Didnt...

What exactly do you think a Kibler is? It's probably the most modern made gun in the muzzleloding industry.

It's not British that's all I know. P53's and their knockoffs were the AK-47 of the 19th century. They were used and sent all over. So it wouldn't be unheard of if it was Greek marked, but probably not manufactured.

I hope Kiblers next build is a copy of the rifle that Wallace Gusler builds in the Gunsmith of Williamsburg. Wallace did an ok job, but Kibler tech will make a better gun.

That's boy looks like he's from 1840, not 1710. But my choice would be a buccaneer.

Awesome, can't wait to see the "My Kibler Hawken finally done" posted 20 times a day, followed shortly by "Kibler Hawken For Sale" posted 10 times daily.

The last one I saw sell on the N-SSA site was only $3000 last year. They are neat, but a novelty. Just like the original Colts, nobody wants to put their hands on the forearm because of the chance of a chain fire of all the cylinders.

I think it's Mid Eastern or Mediterranean, sometimes referred to as a "dag". Look on some of the auction sites. Prices vary.

It could be accurate, but with a short sight radius it would be difficult. Like others mentioned, it wasn't designed as a target gun, but to ride your prey down from horseback. Specific gun for a specific situation.

Here's one from Bolk Antiques: https://www.bolk-antiques.nl/inventory/long-guns/long-guns-european-other/a-very-nice-antique-dutch-model-1815-rifled-percussion-musket-converted-from-flintlock-caliber-175-mm-length-144-cm-in-very-good-condition-price-1-850-euro-2999499 Seems like yours is...

Something isn't right with it. Looking at Whisker, Hartzler, and Yantz, it doesn't match the one pictured. Couple things stand out to me, the STEEL marking you see on Colt barrels, but not usually on L,G, and Y. The buttplate inlet is not a good as it should be. These were all done on precise...

The first one is an original 3rd Pattern Bess, the 2nd looks like a repro.

I've seen that at many a reenactment. It's always cool to see
