I had Jim Kluskens. aka Distant Thunder out of WI make two custom front sights that I need the extra heights for.
He closed his shop, but he might make a front sight still if you ask. I know he has a shop set up at his house now.

Nope, not me. Leroy spelled his name with an OR, I am a ER. Without a doubt we were related.
I met Leroy at Friendship quite a few years ago.
Certainly a great looking rifle and sold for a fairly cheap price.

Was able to see some really neat old guns, listen to the presenters and got to shoot an original Hawken rifle.
Many thanks to everyone that helped make...

Take a look at the Creedmoor 150 Facebook page. Rick Weber host an annual match that we shoot out to 1,000 yards. Get your rifle up and and running and come shoot with us. No worries about being new, you will gets lots of help.

Sure you can do it and you most likely will not get caught or...
I have shot with the South Africa long range ML team. It is my understanding that they can not get BP and have not been able to for a few years now.
I assume you have googled black powder shooting in SA? Might be your best bet is to find someone with a pound that they will sell you. Hate...
Frankie: Does your new rifle have a ramrod or no ramrod? I am assuming that it is a sporting rifle not a target rifle. I believe that there are a lot of Don Brown kits that have never been assembled.

You might be surprised what you are capable with the right equipment. You ever seen the the ram at 500 meters for black powder cartridge rifle shooting? Most of that is done with peep sights.
You have the right equipment shooting and hitting a target like that shooting off hand...
I received today a flint wallet that I purchased from Andrew DiMarco.
Great quality and workmanship. My first purchase from him and I would certainly not hesitate to make a second.
