Daryl, You have mail. Thanks. Hawkeye

WOW!!! I've wanted a double flint for years. Let one built by Dave Motto, I think, slip away about fifteen years ago and have been sorry ever since. Who made this one and are they still making them? Money is a little scarce now just bought a new sporting clays gun and a custom .40 flintlock...

Try an L&R replacement lock www.lr-rpl.com Last time I was there Chuck Dixon had some in stock. (610)756-6271 good luck Hawkeye

Roundball, It would seem that way based on the NMLRA's published platform, but looking at the Feb 2004 Muzzle Blasts four of six longhunter field reports were about game harvested with zip guns. It seems to me a scope sighted jacketed hollowpoint firing primer locked rifle has much more in...

Joe. I can't help find who you are looking for but perhaps you can help me. We moved to mountaintop about two years ago and I can't find a good close black powder club to shoot. Right now I wish I'd never taken the job here and was still turning wrenches on airplanes in Lebanon County, Lots of...
