Those are absolutely awesome! So unique and gorgeous. I was too slow on the button for one of his pistols on Track of the Wolf once. I wish I had hit the button and worried about gas and rent later.

I am not sure if this could be made to work on one of these long rifles, but it is pretty common with the guys I shoot Sharps rifle unmentionables with to take a penny, cut it, and install it as a front sight. An Indian head penny. It is well known in those Sharps circles that a penny sight like...

This was a really cool read. Amazing that it was done with an original. Thanks!

My experimentation with buckshot out of my fowler has been pretty underwhelming. However, at pistol range, I would think a little buck or bird shot would certainly be pretty nasty combined with the ball. Especially if you are like 5 feet away. If anything it makes sure that red coat pauses with...

This day in age its all about mental health. I am mentally healthy when I pour powder down a tube and shoot it out.

I use any kind of bee or wasp nest interchangeably. It works great and was my favorite until I figured out my shot card combo. I generally just keep my eye out during winter and knock down whatever I find. Ive never found anything live inside but I also only do it in New England or PA during...

Where in Maryland if you dont mind me asking? I was born an Eastern shore boy. I Just drove back to CT after visiting for Thanksgiving.

Especially if the owner spoke French😂

“Too long” is all personal preference but I will give you my experience. I was wary about long barrels when having my fowler made but I could not be happier that I chose 44 inches rather than shorter. I am 5’7 and dont even notice the length. So in the end I would just go with what you like...

As its been said slice a little notch in them. That does the trick! I will even stack six or so at a time and slice them to speed it up. It doesnt take a big slice to do the trick. Good luck

Very nice! A real looker. If it could only talk

Would the bottom of the frame have been silver like this as well? So this is all around a gun that could have fit in the 1850s more or less? Thanks!

That answers my question! I had no idea. Thank you very much. Its a different ball game now that I know they are correct haha.

I know they relied on these rifles for their living and life, but I fail to believe these guys could truly dedicate the time to load development that we do. We mess around with different powders and all crazy manner of loading techniques. I am not saying they didnt put time into it and achieve...

Very interesting. It is funny how much slang for a “plain” or “promiscuous” woman filters down throughout history, and the different things that these slang terms are applied to.

If you are really set on a lefty then there is another forum called ALR (American Longrifle Forum) that many of us here are also members of. If you want, I am sure one of us, myself included, would put an ad out on there to increase the “traffic” for your search. Only if you want of course.

I am sorry if you already know this but I am a lefty shooter and I would like to point out that in NO WAY does a righty gun affect a lefty shooter. My first flintlock was lefty, now all three of the guns I own are righty. Just a tip in case you see a righty rifle you think he would like. I dont...

I wait until they take them off to sneak up. It is way better than using a flashlight at night…I kid 😂

I like it but I have only been using it for a couple of months. It is slick as eel s**t. It worked real well the other day in some 33 degree weather. Haven't tried it out in the heat yet. I just drag my patch across it making sure its enough pressure to pickup some of the lube without completely...
