Now the bag, from The Leatherman. Mine will have the optional leather strap.

Love it, you have a good eye for match making! I think it is an excellent choice to go along with your Spanish piece! Hang on and I will edit this post with some pictures of my new powder horn and possibles bag. Scroll reads Liberty or Death. Initials GW? Maybe for George Washington? My...

Yikes! :D;)

I'm not sure if the initials are supposed to represent George Washington or not. My first and middle initials are GW though! Pretty Cool, I really like it. Should look good with my Charleville! The banner reads Liberty or Death.

No worries, we've all been there and done that at one time or another. I have found that the good folks on this forum are very forgiving. One needs but apologize for grumpy, rude, argumentative posts and forgiveness is instantaneous. One of the things that makes me love this forum. Most are...

Flash back to Barney Fife! LOL

Interestingly, I did a google search of David Pedersoli Charles Moore Flintlock Pistol, of all the images of them there were only a couple that had the ramrod up tight near the barrel at the nose cap. All the others, the rod tip was close or touching at the muzzle, but had a 1/8" or in at least...

That makes sense. Not being Scottish, let alone a highlander, I never gave much thought to how a mid length frock coat would look over a kilt. Hehehe, a bustle, your killing me here! That stuff on Outlander sure looks Scottish to my eyes, even if it is not period correct. I like that show just...

Bang is right, never dry fire. Always load and pop caps to dry fire. (best to do this outside, scared the bejesuses out of my wife one time in the house) :D! The hammer is case hardened and tempered, the nipples, especially the Italian factory nipples are very soft by comparison, the brass of...

TRESO's are very good, I have SlixShots on my Uberti Walker. They are stainless steel and are made for #10 Remington caps. The factory nipples on the reproduction guns are not the best, it is a common fault, and often times as you say, they don't seem to like #10 or #11 of some makers. Left...

This site is in the UK, they have a mid 1700's wool frock coat. Scroll down to get to it. I found another site that had very nice Jacobite linen shirts as well. https://www.sutlers.co.uk/acatalog/Napciv.html

Not a frock coat, but it is tartan, pricey though! http://www.kilts-n-stuff.com/outlander-products/outlander-plaids/dougals-plaid-authentic-premium-wool-tartan.html

That would be Townsends web site. It is available in about 12 different colors in linen. There is a link to the color sample pages. Hope this helps. https://www.townsends.us/collections/coats-frocks-and-jackets/products/frock-coat-fc156-p-1252 They have some bonny good hats there as well...

I know where you can get one in linen, but not wool, and especially not plaid wool. Sorry. Good luck though, hope you score!

Good deal. Hopefully it will be back sooner, but the weather is cold again right now so no troubles. I'm turning into a fair weather shooter the older I get. LOL I used to hunt is the worst of weather, be out all day in it and loved it. Heck, a lot of the old mountain men were old before...

Read Paul V's excellent article "Flintlocks: How to shoot them" in the how to articles. I'll post a link. https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/threads/flintlocks-how-to-shoot-them.38886/

I think Uberti is the only one currently making the Walker, but I could be wrong about that. Used to be some ASM, and Colt did a re-issue for a short while. I know what you mean about losing track of what day it is or the date. My wife and I do it all the time now that we are both retired...

Well, this has been quit interesting. I've got a fiberglass ramrod, and a steel one, and a stainless steel one, and a brass sectional cleaning rod. I like the 3/8" brass one the best. All have been waxed and I always use a rod guide, even on the smooth bore. I got the brass one from...

Here is another picture of the Walker you might like. This one will be killing you! LOL GoWacky has sent his Traditions Crockett in .32 caliber back to the factory for warranty repair several times, with a couple of weeks or less for turn around. They finally got it so it fires consistently...
