    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    That's kind of like saying Albert Einstein had a second grade education and finally went back to the third grade for more schooling. Don't sell yourself short. I've seen what you can do from being on here. The Doc is out now. :cool:

    Happiness for the Doc today. I found my missing short pan primer in the last place I looked for it. Of course, I managed to overlook it before in the same spot, several times. Now I have to start getting disorganized again. The Doc is out now. :cool:

    Favorite caliber to shoot

    Same. I have three excluding cap and ball pistols. .54, .50 and .45. Each has its' own purpose of target or hunting, and often, both. The Doc is out now. :cool:

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    This looking around for things is turning up more items. Although I have not found my small pan primer, I did just a little bit ago find my combo tool of pan brush, vent pick and multi-head thumb screwdriver on a ring. Yesterday, too, my wife saved me a bunch of money that I was going to spend...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Found the missing screwdriver with the bit that perfectly fits my Kibler lock jaw screw. in the meantime, I find I am missing a small pan primer. However, since I have a larger pan primer and like it more, I will not dwell on this. The Doc is out now. :cool:

    Kibler Fowler

    Now that I have found the Kibler guns, and the locks that come with them, and having found that Paul Valandigham article, I can't imagine using others' makes of locks. (Save for my Pedersoli Jaeger flinter). Yes, Rocklocks are an acquired taste, but it is a great taste. Speaking of which, it's...

    I found the missing pliers a little bit ago, and my BP cleaning patches are now all in one spot, but that screwdriver is still AWOL. Other than that for BP stuff, I read the forums for what is new. The Doc is 1/2 relieved now. 🫡

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Did something of which the meaning of is obscure to me. Organizing. I am still looking for my missing small precision pliers and the screwdriver handle and a bit from a Wheeler set. I did move several bags and boxes of cast balls from the floor and put them in a storage dresser. I also arranged...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Finally cut off the overhanging tabs of the wide base of my Woodsrunner front sight which I had been using to center the sight by bending those over to hold it in place. Slightly peened/hammered the barrel where the sight cut is, which I managed to make too wide when making the gun. Now the...

    Arkansas Jim

    For elongating the barrel lug holes you will need to get yourself a jeweler's saw and some replacement blades. They will break. For the sight, put it upside down in a vice and use a center punch to put some divots into the base. This should solve that problem. The Doc is out now. :cool:

    Anyone else chomping at the bit for the Kibler smoothbore?

    I was hoping for the Fowler, but at the moment, I am torn. When Jim said that this was for shot only, it stopped my enthusiasm. I was hoping for a gun I could use for both shot AND ball as a smoothie. Then I also saw that what Jim was contemplating was akin to a Trade gun. I'm not one for the...

    old bullet mold

    Some early Colts were .28 caliber, the pocket Pattersons. That cavity does not look that round though. The Doc is out now. :cool:
