Does anyone know if the "Rice Barrel tang removal wrench" will fit Pedersoli Trade gun, and Pedi Brown Bess tangs, ???. I want to remove the tangs and do some mods on the inside, like enlarging the Trade gun breech chanel, and smoothing the Bess breech face. Thanks Dave

ALR=American Long Rifles Forum. Crazy Crow Trading, also sells small, polished flat horns, with a stopper, at a reasonable price. Dave

The breach plug in my Ped Brown Bess Carbine is just like the one Dave has pictured. My other 2 Pedersolis have the Patent Breach. They are the Indian Trade Musket, and the Pennsylvania long gun. Hope this helps. Dave C.

Too much work drilling a rod out. I use "delrin" from TOW for hunting. Track also carries 9mm (.354inch) rods in hickory, and delrin for most Pedersolis. Tracks rod shipping charges are very reasonable, also. Dave

Looks like a boat, does it float. Nice, and simple desighn. Dave

I have about 18 empty cans like that. I gave away more. Dave

Heres a couple I built from Green River kits, a few years ago. I make my own sheaths, also. They are resonably priced, and easy to build. Dave

Rienemans Hdwr in Burlington Wi., Does not sell real Black Powder. Dave

Good luck finding lock parts if you ever need them. They are unobtainium. Nothing will fit them. Dave

I second the sharpies. I also use bright red lipstick, a tube will last a long time. Dave

I have polished the bores in both of my Pedersoli guns with scotch brite pads. I use gray, and brown while polishing. Good report on the trade gun. I like mine, along with my Pedi Brown Bess Carbine. Dave

Dixie Gun Works shows both the full length, and the Carbine version, in stock. Dave

I made 3 Crazy Crow Possibles bags last winter from they're kits, they all turned out good. I did a little modifiying on them also. They have some good products. We use tarred haverscks in the NSSA. Dave

A nice 20 Gage/62 cal smooth bore "Chiefs Trade Gun" would be nice. i'd buy one. A nice brass but plate, good lock and a period serpent plate and more. Dave

44 Dont kow how much it adds in size to the ball, but it holds the lube real good. After about 10-12 shots it does get a little tight to load, tho, but as stated in the NSSA not alowed to use patches. Some guys use tin foil. Dave

Corn meal..... pour it on ant hills....... makes em choke......... I use cream of wheat. Dave

I use 75 grns of 2 ff in my original 1847. I put my face on the stock, so I can see the length of the bbl. Its like looking down a rail. I shoot a .678 ball, that I roll between 2 rasps to roughen the surface, then dip the ball in 50/50 bees wax,and mutton tallow lube. Dave

Strip the stock with paint, and varnish remover first. If you sand it first you will probably make the stock to small. Thier isn't a lot of wood, to begin with. Vinegar will work good on the metal parts. Dave

Thanks Bob I gotta git her done. Pedersoli kits are good quality. This is my 3rd one. Dave

Im working on a Pedersoli trade Musket kit, at present. I changed the Sea Serpent to a more corect one, that I got from Track of the Wolff. If you do this make sure you get the Serpent the has no lock bolt holes, so you can drill your own. Dave
