    T/C Hawken Rebarrel.

    I just picked up a T/C Hawken in .50 cal for $50. The problem is the bore has a good amount of rust. Is it worth it to spend a couple hundred dollars to re-barrel it? The rest of the parts look fine.

    MVTC English "Ketland" Fusil?

    That gun turned out very nice indeed. I glad to see some positive reviews. Overall I'm pretty new to this hobby and can't justify spending $1000+ on a flintlock when I can get one that will work for half despite a being a little rough around the edges. My main concerns are safety and function.

    MVTC English "Ketland" Fusil?

    Does anybody have any experience with this gun or any other gun from MVTC? I really want a Northwest trade gun but the price of one has me looking at the MVTC Ketland Fusil.

    Brown Bess for hunting?

    Has anybody used a Brown Bess for hunting? If so how does one go about sighting with it? .75 cal must hold a pretty good amount of shot and I would use it mostly for squirrel/rabbit, but also for deer if possible. Any information would be great.

    Short barrel muzzleloader?

    Do the laws for short barreled rifles/shotguns also apply for muzzleloaders? I was looking into getting a blunderbuss that has a 14" barrel and was wondering if I could legally own/shoot it? I live in New York if that makes any difference for state laws as well. Any info would be great.

    Shot from a rifled barrel?

    I would really like a muzzleloading shotgun or a smoothbore musket but I think the price is out of my budget. Does anybody know of a reasonably priced smoothbore muzzleloader to shoot shot out of? I was also looking at a smaller caliber rifle for small game hunting but I'm still new to...

    Budget rifle?

    Are there any budget rifles available? I'm looking for something for under $200. Would I be better off looking for something used or is there anyone that makes a decent starter rifle?

    58cal hunting?

    Does anybody hunt with 58cal? This will be my first year hunting with a muzzleloader and I will be using my 58cal Enfield Musketoon. Any advice on types of bullets or powder charges? Any advice would be great.

    Classic Arms pistol kits?

    Does anybody have any experience with any of the Classic Arms pistol kits? I was thinking of getting either the pepperbox or ducksfoot but cant really find any information about them. I think one would make an interesting addition to my collection. Any information would be great.
