EDIT You don't sell black powder on this forum. Making posts to sell black powder or percussion caps in the general forum areas and in the Classified Ad section is against the rules. Carrying this on a bit further, selling real black powder is also against the Federal laws unless you have a...

Kasenit is no longer avaliable. It was taken off of the market several years ago because it uses a cyanide process of hardening. Before someone who has some gets freeked out like the idiots that demanded that it be removed, the cyanide is chemically locked into the stuff and it does not escape...

Look in the Shooting Accessories section of the forum.

That's just the way the flint was put into the cock jaws. If you notice, the lower jaw flat is aimed at the pan like it should be.

Some people are bashful.

Well, as long as you don't invite strangers into the house and the display isn't visible from outside the house, your probably safe. On the other hand if either of these things happen you are inviting unwanted people to steal your guns. I had a bunch of pistols hanging on the wall in my family...

I moved this thread here because the OP asked me to move it to a place where more people could see it and be aware of what's happening. I was originally in the American Politics section of the forum and our regulator members can't read threads in that area. As long as the posts do not get...

You'll never know until you try them. If they were receiently made they are probably fine. If they were made a year ago or longer, they may fly apart into shreds when the gun fires.

If anyone wants to send mailing addresses or other personal information, PLEASE do not post it on the web in a thread like this. Always use the PM or private message system. No one can read a PM unless they are included in it.

Hopefully, we can get back to talking about gardens in this thread and stop talking about green glass?

Without getting into the best way to carry your rifle on a horse, I will say, you are taking a big chance with your Kibler colonial. As you know, horses sometimes will spook at the slightest provocation. Maybe it is because of a snake? Maybe it's just the way light glitters off of rippling...

Says one buck to another after seeing a naked hunter pass by, "Now I know why they wear clothes. If I looked like that naked, I'd wear them too."

Umm.... This thread is about the Traditions Kentucky model rifle which is a full stock gun. We have a lot of threads about the Traditions Frontier half stock rifles so I think further discussion about this model gun would be more "at home" in one of them. If a thread about the Traditions half...

I'm moving this thread to the Muzzleloading Hunting area of the forum. One of the reasons the Muzzleloading Hunting section was created is, believe it or not, many of our members do not like to see pictures of blood and dead animals. In fact, they really dislike seeing pictures like these. I...

ASM = Armi San Marco

Lymans "Black powder handbook" says their .44 revolver with a 8" barrel had the following velocities loaded with round balls and GOEX 2Fg powder 20 grains = 640 fps 25 grains = 737 fps 30 grains = 794 fps

There were a lot of rifles made in California following the gold rush that look a lot like the T/C and Traditions half stock rifles. Getting to the "shooting lead" part, read all the threads you can on the forum that talk about loading and loads for muzzleloading rifles. There is a lot of...

I removed several posts in this ad because they weren't about helping Winchester97 to find the gun he's looking for. This is a WANTED ad. If you can help him find the gun he wants, that's great. Comments about loading stands, how well your pistol shot and other things should not be made here.

Most people load the balls with the sprue up in the chamber so they can try to get it centered. They feel that if it is centered it won't make the ball wobble as it flys towards the target. Others say it doesn't make a difference so just make sure the sprue is pointed in a direction that does...

Paying $2175 for that pistol is just an example of total ignorance on the part of the buyer. Whoever it was must have thought the pistol was an original Paterson in premium condition. I can't totally fault the seller in this sale either. He most clearly shows the pistol laying on top of the...
