    Kibler?

    Tomorrow will be a month for me. When i asked two weeks ago it was going to be anther week or two. Still no word. I guess cherry must not be in great supply. I'd hate to be a pest, but I guess I am getting a little antsy...

    Hey Kibler

    You would think so, but it's probably more complicated than that. The sight dovetails are more than likely done in the same machine that does the rest of the profiling. Changing that one little item should be easy enough, but does a company that busy want to pay their programmer to go through...

    Sharing My Brown Bess - Looks to be somewhat Defarbed

    I was giving a compliment, and relating what it brought to my mind. It looks refinished (faded blue/ brown). If you want to expound on why this is wrong; fine, do so then. But the gotcha style format of your questions makes me think I stumbled into "blackpowder snipers hide".

    Different, not as-issued, refinished at a point in time after military service.

    Interesting info from the Lewis and Clark expedition

    Seems like there was a good variety. A smooth bore could've certainly been possible. http://westernexplorers.us/Lewis-and-Clark-Expedition-firearms-summary.html#:~:text=All%20the%20firearms%20of%20the,Indians%20with%20its%20repeating%20operation.

    Interesting info from the Lewis and Clark expedition

    Did the original source claim he had a rifle? I thought a majority of arms at that point were smooth bore. If it wasn't a rifle, small pebbles would've absolutely been my first choice. I'm sure enough leaves, grass, hide would've been available for wadding.

    I like Justin's idea... just use more sticks!

    Interesting info from the Lewis and Clark expedition

    Curiosity got the better of me... I tried pieces of green boxelder branch. Once or twice just a snug fit to the bore, and twice more slightly smaller with a patch. Used 30 grains 2F. Enough power to completely penetrate both sides of a large cardboard box. Plenty enough to kill a rabbit... if...

    Tell me of your cleaning rituals

    Any issues ever with crud building up on the inside of white lightning touch holes? I never cleaned a ML that wasn't hook breeched before, so any additional pointers appreciated. Good stuff so far gents.
