    turning down ramrod ends for tips?

    Any hints/tips or is it just a case of using a sharp knife and trial fitting? Do you really "drive" it on (looking for a press fit) or do you want more of a slip fit and count on the pin to hold it? Have some good Hickory rods and want to put some shotgun (tulip) ends on them.

    Remove CASE hardened color.

    Birchwood casey blue and rust remover will work as well.

    Converting GM T/C Hawken barrel to flint?

    They told me it wasn't a sale but a close out and included 54 cal flint slow twist, all smooth bores, 58 cal percusion and all the others I asked about (didn't ask about any fast twist or small bores).

    Converting GM T/C Hawken barrel to flint?

    They tell me they have no more breech plugs and the barrels that were on sale for $100 are discontinued items. Looks like GM isn't making many more T/C Hawken barrels unless they told me wrong.

    Converting GM T/C Hawken barrel to flint?

    Ok - I have the tools and knowhow needed and want to do the project. Not to save money, just cause I want to (same reason I build rifles from parts, rebarrel mausers, etc.). Anyone know about the thread on GM breeches?

    Converting GM T/C Hawken barrel to flint?

    Ok - I have a 1" .62 cal Green Mountain barrel in percussion. I have read that the factory T/C barrels are a bear to un-breech - are the GM barrels as bad? Can I use one of TOTW's 1" TC flint breech plugs to convert this barrel to flint? Which thread would I need - 11/16 - 20 or 3/4 - 16? Thanks

    London Oil finish

    Link doesn't work for me - but this is what I use on Walnut for "modern" guns with walnut stocks for a London finish. http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/ProductDetail.aspx?p=21424 The company is out of South Africa - I have corresponded with the owner and he is very helpful if you have any...

    Converting T/C from cap to flint?

    Is converting a T/C Hawken from cap to flint as easy as switching locks and barrels? In other words, are the stocks inlet the same for both types?
