I use both hands and have usually made the joke that I am "semi-amphibious." A couple of months ago I had an accident that cut my left index finger requiring 6 stitches. I write, eat and bat a baseball left handed. Other activities can involve the right hand. I shoot with both hands but...

I can't remember if this was said or not but I get tired of hearing, "Even if you overcharge the round with too much powder, the stuff that isn't burned will blow out the barrel."

I think that they should do another movie about Robert Rogers; a truthful movie. Like Benedict Arnold, he had many talents. However, he lacked humility. That eventually became his downfall. Nevertheless, the movie, "Northwest Passage" was one of those cinematic classics that taught me that...

I use to do that but the Butt-Out tool is faster and easier. I also don't have to waste time looking for a limb and cutting it.

At first I laughed at the Butt-Out tool then I got one. It really does make field dressing easier.

Was the creep ever formally banned from participating in any reenactments again?

What load are you using to hunt pheasants?

I don't agree with everything he says. In particular he advocates that dueling wasn't necessary about killing the other guy. In France and the US, duelists tended to be extremely serious about killing the other guy. Nevertheless, he has some nice specimens to review. Bonus video:

Try this modification. I did and problems were solved.

Cheating goes on everywhere. That doesn't make it right; only that honest people have to be more vigilant. Locks are made for honest people. Steel bars and jail cells are made for the people that break the locks. If you go to YouTube you will see one of the commentators say that they "won"...

How about a third type? Those that have lied about it.

A long time ago I was a frequent guest at a nearby muzzleloading club. A few friends would take me there every once and a while. I thought about joining except for the way that I was treated when visiting the club for the first time. Please keep in mind that I had baby face despite my age. I...

I watched a friend shooting a new flintlock rifle; his first. He would not stop talking. I admonished him with, "Less talk. More shooting. You're going to screw it up." He wouldn't listen. Sure enough, I watched him forget to load the powder. It was really fun watching him refill the pan...

I have a Parker-Hale Whitworth with the clean out screw. Without getting into the debate on whether or not to remove the screw, I'd like to find a replacement. It's a little screw and, if I ever have to remove it, I am afraid of losing it. I've don't a lot of searches online, turning up...

You assume that I’m using the ramrod incorrectly with the methods in your aforementioned comments. I do not use the ramrod in the manner you describe and the patch/ball combinations aren’t tight as you suggest. It’s a pity that you’re “tired of folks saying factory gun ramrod are junk.” Well...

When you think you have a really clean bore but look at it with a bore scope it gets scary. When you think you have really clean ears but look at them with a bore scope you will think you have a rare disease and could loose your hearing or die any minute. Now that I've said this, some of you...
