    Custom built vs. kit guns

    I suppose maybe I wasn't clear enough when I mentioned "kits". What I really meant were "factory made guns" that are mass produced. I didn't really give an answer to why I went with a custom built gun, except that I wanted something that was closer to being "original" or "personal", maybe...

    Custom built vs. kit guns

    I was having a discussion the other day with my uncle in regard to Custom built muzzleloaders, adn Kit guns. I tried to explain to him why I went with a custom built flintlock, but I was'nt too convincing as to why I needed to do that as opposed to buying a kit gun. I'd appreciate any thoughts...

    tomahawks

    Not to start a debate but wouldn't you think that to lump every pre-and colonial frontiersman into the same mode, because of only a few documented clues on whether a hawk was sheathed or not would be just unjust and portraying history incorrectly? I already in another post told how I carry mine...

    tomahawks

    I just got through making a sheath for a new Hawk that a buddy made for me. It's awesome. I didn't want to use a shoulder strap, and I also didn't want a flap to close over the top of the hawk. I just made a cradle with a hole in the bottom for the handle and cut it low enough that I can grab...
