Yeah, I recently bought a Charles Daly at a pawn shop. I paid $180 and it is a near perfect; cal .45 ML. Pretty gun, well finished. Added. Looks to be unfired but if not, then well maintained for years.

A shoe works well and has more flat power surface than a gun stock. I met a man in Mexico who had kayaked from Washington State, down the entire west coast and back up the Sea of Cortez to San Carlos, Sonora ... all documented in several ways. Paddles do work fine in Salt water and were...

Yes :rolleyes::horseback:

I have no knowledge of plains style rifles in the East. However, I do have an opinion [for whatever that's worth] about the subject. Many military rifle were used, abused and relegated to the barn. Many of those were large caliber rifles intended to wound/kill men. Certainly, many of those...

Exquisite work, great talent. Make some more.

Yeah, I have a couple of custom rifles as well. Love 'em a lot. They are on display over my fireplace.

There is another answer. I love scouring the internet and pawn shops for CHEAP kits. Example: I bought a new in box Lyman GPR kit for $175 down in south Texas. Fun build, beautiful wood [much to remove], light finish as my wife prefers and a really nice browning job using Laurel Mountain...

Got mine several days ago; worth your wait. I don't do digital magazines or newspapers,

As we move farther from our history, in many facets of life, we lose the Exstacy of participation. My family and friends learned to accomplish an exciting response to simple living. Example: the cell phone [yes, I have one] that allows us to stay connected continually, but also steals our...

I had the privilege of working with both granddads. Both nice guys, one a business owner [several businesses] and the other a hard-scabble farmer. Grandpa Norlund hardly ever cursed or used foul language. However, when he did, we kids all knew to head for high ground. He only cursed when...

Welcome. I loved Athens and the Island of Crete. It is beautiful, great people and historic. Would love to see it again but I'm too old now. Dale

i have a Remington New Model Army .44 Caliber [top flat] and marked on left flat "Dixie Gun Works, Inc. Made in Italy". No date code. Serial #32491[8] or 0. on right side of the cylinder. The barrel has small, thin vertical tool marks on its entirety. I would love to know who built those...

Too cute to shoot.

Uh huh, and where would you carry six of those monstrosities [breech inserts] to enable you to readily take one out of the gun, put it away, get one from your large bag, insert it, check priming, cock the hammer, etc. :rolleyes: I like my Santa Fe Hawken. EDIT: BTW, one would need two...

I think it is hilarious! Just determine, in your mind, the steps necessary to load, shoot and reload, I'll stick to a normal sidelock muzzleloader. Good grief, what a monstrosity, Nice collector item, however.

A reproduction 1858 Remington revolver. His description, price and prompt responses/shipment were perfect. Great transaction. Dale [Polecat 🦨 ]

I will take this revolver. P.M. sent. Dale
