Hodgdon made a business call. I find it interesting that one would brag about immediately running out and buying 50 pounds. To each his own I guess. Reminds me of the toilet paper fiasco we experienced last year. But, hopefully, the European manufacturers will fill the void. That is if...

You guys are definitely in a different league than me. Spectacular rifles!

Well, it's done... A few boo-boo's along the way but nothing serious. I do have a slight gap between the barrel and the rear of the stock. Jim gave me an idea of the fix but it didn't seem to work. Also, pfff, I acquired a small scratch in the finish. I'll eventually resolve those two issues...

Just finishing mine up as we speak. A few minor details to finish up on... I opted for the Tannic acid finish...

What he said... Jim is extremely concerned about his quality but occasionally something gets by them. The patch cover on my Colonial had a broken drill bit in the predrilled hole which the patch door spring is located. All it took was a call and in two days I received two new patch doors, no...

A stupid question... Wouldn't a file work?

Unmentionables... Now that's funny... I have plenty of those and the ammo to go with it. Been stocking up for years. No way I ever give up cartridge rifles or unmentionables... I'm an equal opportunity shooter. I don't hunt but shoot as often as I can. I really like my BP guns (flinters) that I...

I for one, have no particular skills but enough to assemble a Kibler kit but it does involve buying some good tools, especially chisels which I have done. And, I really feel that the experience of assembling these might take the fear our of building some of the more challenging kits. Jim found...

CLP will not fowl any worse than anything else. Of course you could always heavily apply it and then try to shoot the gun with a wet bore. Makes you wonder how the gun could even be loaded like this... . I imagine in this case there would be some build up in the bore. The stuff I get is the...

I just got mine in the other day. Just about a month early :) Had to send away for some decent chisels so she awaits all ready to go... I think, for this gun, the change to a darker color was best.

All the Pedersoli's have have owned has a brown stain in the bore. As someone else said above, it must be the color of the oil/grease they use in the bores.

What I did yesterday was to receive my Kibler Southern Mountain Rifle kit :ghostly: Other than that, I will usually respond to such a question with the following response: My son called and asked me what I was going to do today. I said nothing. He said you did that yesterday. I said, true, but...

Opps, sorry.

Totally sweet!! Mine is coming in May...

That's the look... Pretty sweet

Boy, that's a lot of darkening solution. I noticed on their web site that they are out of stock with the 8 oz. size. I wonder if this 8oz METAL DARKENING SOLUTION - | Brass | bronze | tin| J-3498 is the same thing. They both share part numbers... And the labels are identical with the historic...

What a beauty. I'm tempted :rolleyes:
