Kuchenreuter with LePage Flint with custom match Bobby Hoyt. 36 caliber rifled barrel.

The Kuchenreuter by Pedersoli is shown with a target pistol made in the 1840s by Casimir Weber Zurich Switzerland. Both have adjustable rear sights, Key barrels, Hook patent breeches and very similar locks. The Kuchenreuter has a much shorter hammer through for a faster fire or lock time...

Enjoying 3 days of load development and fine championship winning level target results with this Kuchenreuter originally made by Pedersoli. My tuning and test results posted on the Handgun forum. I'm impressed it keeps up with my Original 1840s Swiss target Caplock. It shoots match accurate...

You are assuming rational in rules making. The rules don't care. In order to compete in the Traditional matches you're guns must be inspected, Tagged and logged as passing inspection rules. May sound complicated. It's not. The NMLRA rules are simple...nsp

Just NMLRA and NRA rules for traditional matches. You can shoot Saw Handel types in the non-traditional matches and local matches that have their own rules...nsp ..

Still can. Pedersoli`s Cook shoots like a modern pistol and works great when properly tuned. If it fit the rules of my traditional matches it would be a top choice for me, but I prefer the "looks" of Gold over looks of guns...nsp

50yds. Group is a bit low but the score is still decent. 18gr. Swiss. Final results: It deserves to be a first line Traditional Caplock for the worthy. First pistol I have found to equal my custom DeHass barreled LePage. Why not just switch pistols if they are equal? Equal is not worth getting...

I agree. My taper Lapping was mostly polishing with JB bore compound as this bore was good from the start. The polishing has shown to make for easier loading today at the range...nsp Group on the first target today may indicate a change in sight adjustment adjustment is needed . After bore...

The bore from the factory was good but not great. Bore Lapping / polishing and Crown polishing before and after... Not sure if these pictures are enough to tell the difference. With my reading glasses I see the difference. Can you see the change? Why: Crown, Easier to start... Bore, Easier to...

More adjustment; Bottom trigger is set. Top trigger is not set. What is new? The trigger has been bent slightly back to both flatten the curve and shorten the length of pull. The trigger guard screws into the trigger plate. Notice it seems like it might screw in another full turn. It does. It...

Understandable that anyone would would think factory manuals or even gun magazines and books would be a good place to start. Unfortunately they are fair to poorly passable if winning match accuracy is needed...nsp...updated... Some exceptions are any articles written by Bill Carver ( Pistol...

Not sure who wrote that. Like a warning label approved by liers/ lawyers. My tuning and loads have to do with what wins championships. I Have .found the factory manuals only chuckle and scoff worthy. Maybe I should thank them for steering many of my follow competitors so wrong. .Maybe I should...

What to expect?... Flinters depend on your follow through more than other guns for best results. Unless you're planning on killing something 25 grs is way more than the 14- 18 grains needed to win championships. Less is more. Benchrest BP pistol results are bunk. Even my 40 cal. Pistols use no...

Never have shot modern Repo that did not require a lot of the tuning as I described. Some I would consider next to useless without some extreme tuning. Expecting my set triggers to pass some sort of bump test would not allow me to adjust them to the 1.5 Oz. weight they are. Only setting your...

Hi Barry, Well enough to take all 3 Championships and have James, the 14 year old young man I have been coaching take the Unclassified Championship and the Junior Championship. Hope you make it in "25" Barry...nsp

The extra sheen that strikes me as a warm glow is hand rubbed pure beeswax. If your hand gets dry breeth on it before setting your grip. Beeswax works best with a little moisture. Why; this part of my tuning is for a better grip surface. Less effort and slippage in your grip helps with...

Proper fitting of the mainspring to the top retention screw not done at the factory. Notice the notch on top of mainspring now fits inside the top screw. Why. If the top of the mainspring were to slip off this notch inside the mortise it would or could cause damage to the mortise. Just a common...
