    Will the bottom fall out of the custom build business?

    It is just a small thing to me, but I do bring it up on occasion. There are many different levels of building these firearms and all of them are equally enjoyable and should be recognized as legitimate. Builder to me is someone who makes the components and then puts them into a piece of wood...

    Will the bottom fall out of the custom build business?

    flintlock ignition trouble what do you think please help.

    First, is this a White Lightin Liner or a close copy? If so, I can give you a good answer to the problem. Some of those (or copies) have the spark channel from the outside to the inside of the cone that is way too deep (long). I had the same problem on some of my custom builds and I knew...

    WANTED Green Mountain Drop In Barrels (TC) - 36 and 40 caliber

    I have bought them out of the 40 - temporarily. It looks like it will be a few months before they get them back into production. They have some 32's, but those don't work for my needs. Thanks for the assistance.
