Yes, they made them in kits,just like all the other kits. I put a .54 together and sold it,bought every one I have seen since to compensate LOL.

TC Seneca,Lymans Trade gun may come in around 7lbs.

In a rifle, can't you just drop your ramrod down the the bore with a couple of short up and downs. Especially with old cap left on,you would think this would put out any spark.Thought I read this in a very old muzzleloader book?

The older Winchester "Winchokes" work in the New Englander.

They still make the original Tru-Oil. The new stuff is called Genuine Tru-Oil and it is different.It has a satin finish,and the dry times are a lot longer.It does smell different and I don't like it.Longer dry times are a pain,and if I want a Satin finish I just use grey 3M scuff pads to dull...

Don't know if they sell oversize metric,but they do sell about 5 sizes up from the standard US 1/4x28 thread. You might be better going that route.

To put things in perspective,I have seen a few TC 12ga. barrels alone go for $400.Most go for $300+.So if you sold just the barrels it would be around $400.Then you have a stock and lock worth Aprox.-$200. Definitely under retail!!

I too made many ramrods from the brown fiberglass.Better make sure you use a muzzle guard all the time.Now I use electrical shrink tubing over my fiberglass rods and it works perfect as a non abrasive indestructible ramrod-range rod.

Well he may not have spent $200 for a lock,but it will end up real close.TC flintlocks are gold on Ebay and his lock has the old style hammer.If he upgrades the TC hammer he will be close to $200 for a lock. But he still made the right choice!

Just keep in mind that the Blue Ridge flintlocks are not the best [the Locks].And ignition channel on both percussion and flintlocks is very fussy and needs to be cleaned very well.I have a Blue Ridge in .54 Percussion, their percussion lock seems very reliable.And if you don't use the set...

Been trying to buy a Pedersoli Sharps for 6 months,lots of pretty stock photos on the big dealers websites.But that is what the gun is -a photo,most do not have them in stock.

I could not find the TC replacement cock on their website?

My .36 Seneca does the same thing,like the rest said I think it is the Breech plug.

I have a couple of putty knives that work nicely for that slot.Hacksaw blade would be nice to have in a hunting bag,and can be used for different things.

All of the big internet gun dealers are all saying they are swapped.Most say 30 days or more to process a order.Been looking for a Pedersoli Sharps rifle and eveybody's inventory of Italian guns is way down,or way overpriced.

What is different about the New Englander hammer as opposed to the Hawken?

That was a pretty good deal. And that crack in the stock is super easy to fix. I'm pretty good at it,as almost all the TC's I buy have it LOL! It's kind of a hallmark of the earlier TC's.

Well, that there is a good ole Pakistani knif. It is based on some older pattern. All the venders carry them at Rondys,they used to cost about $7-8 bucks.I use them in my hunting bags.

I use the narrower white medical tape,and put a barber shop pole spiral on the rod. When you torch it go quick,as not to start the tape on fire.When you take it off, clean up the rod with 90% alchohol and scuff pad.It does leave adhesive residue but,it is pretty easy to clean up. When done...
