    Flintlock Wisdom & Direction Needed

    $500 would be at the extreme top end of my range and would require more scraping together of funds. While I would like a custom or semi-custom gun, after being unemployed for nine months, $1000 could be used to pay a lot of bills. I feel uneasy potentially spending what I've got saved already...

    Flintlock Wisdom & Direction Needed

    Hey all... About a year ago, I was looking to get a flintlock kit. Since that time, I'd lost my job and came to the realization that I was not born with the handy gene. Yep, I can find unique ways to butcher just about anything. :redface: I am now employed, thank you Lord, and in the hunt for...

    First... maybe only flintlock

    Thanks for giving me credit I don't deserve :wink: I was going to pay the extra and have him do the inletting, etc or I might end up with expensive kindling.

    First... maybe only flintlock

    First... maybe only flintlock

    What got you into muzzlleloading?

    I didn't start hunting and shooting until I was in my 30's. BP just seemed more like what hunting and shooting should be.... the process... the history. Its just cool. Now I'd like my first flinter.

    First... maybe only flintlock

    OK... I know it a personal preference... what do you plan on hunting(doing) with it kinda question... but I'll ask anyway. I've been saving up for my first flinter kit, still a bit to go, and am torn between a smooth bore and a rifle. I like the longer range/ accuracy of the rifle but the...

    Moccasins

    Thanks all for your advice. So, if fur isn't appropriate, did native Americans sew the wool liners at the same time they stitched the moccasin or was it attached to the leather and then sewn?

    Thanks. I also forgot to ask about the color.... I've seen a wide range.

    Moccasins

    Hi all, I'm looking at trying my hand at making some moccasins, both summer and winter and need some guidance. I think I should be using elk for Eastern Woodland Indian style; Oneida, Delaware (seem closest to the free pattern I found online) for center seem type, but what type of leather? I...
