    Did you all see this?

    This is what we got: Cops have no idea who this old man is/was or his son. Why did those guys choose his/his son's house. Were they after him or his son. and more importantly: Cops need a search warrant just to go to the front door. Remember that old guy, true story, at 80 who ran drugs for...

    LeMat Revolver

    I filled with powder, put a over powder wad, then 30 RB (about 5), then TOW. RSO gets a kick out of it. Really great RSO watches shoot at 10 feet.

    Spiller & Burr

    Just got a call from Taylor. They just got a shipment of Spiller & Burr revolvers. I think the prices was $368. At least I think it was Taylor and 368. I was dazed when I got the call.

    Hi 👋

    Welcome from central Florida. It's always nice to see a gun store show an interest in black powder weapons. We need more of them.

    Traditions 1858 Army Revolver - Nipples no longer fitting in cylinder

    This has happened many times before and addressed here. I ran into this problem. Turns out that during the fitting process at the manufacturer, there may be a tool just off center that created a nipple hole just a bit off. One nipple was screwed into that hole and therefore that nipple only...

    Looks very nice; what do you use to load? Did you order a new pistol ramrod and if you hammer do you use a stand?

    Getting the Walker tuned up

    one last comment: I did not write my comments to detract from the fact that problems need to be resolved. I don't doubt the ability of people to fix firearms to have them perform better/last longer. What I meant to write is that why search for solutions to problems that may not exist. Or...

    Getting the Walker tuned up

    I got my Walker, opened the box, cleaned off the oil, and went shooting. I selected the caps that work best with it (not relying on what the book says). I learned how it felt, how to aim for windage, sight configurations, and ball/powder loads through shooting. I have had no issues...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    My wife and I went to the local range to shoot. I was shooting my 'Dance' and great plains single shot. She had her cap and ball snub nose. At the all clear to change targets, a young 20 years old girl came up and asked what we were shooting that made smoke. We explained it was the black...

    Getting the Walker tuned up

    I have read that along with lever falling, bursting cylinders were the prime reason for Colt making the Dragoon series (1,2,and 3 (supposedly improving by #3)). That asks the question: did the Texas Rangers or civilians incorporate the Dragoon improvements onto their owned Walkers? Cheaper...

    Getting the Walker tuned up

    What exactly is your problem Fireman? I said nothing about preventing anyone from using anything to get a better revolver. I never said there is a violation of rules. I didn't say a thing about what the Rangers did - just queried on what processes they may have done to make their Walkers...
