    Buying bulk black powder

    Powder, Inc. isn't a bad place to buy powder from either. Yesterday, I placed an order with them for about 9.50 per pound.

    Pedersoli Pennyslvania

    Thanks for the replies. It is good to hear your experiences with the piece in question. I didn't know that it had a smaller lock on it. Currently I own a custom Indian Trade smoothbore and a old Zoli 1803 Harpers Ferry both in .58 cal. Wasn't sure I wanted to shell out another $800 to $1500...

    Pedersoli Pennyslvania

    I am currently thinking about purchasing another muzzle loader after x-mas bills are all paid off. Anyway the one I am currently considering is a Pedersoli Pennyslvania Rifle. I was curious of anyone's opinion on this particular rifle as I have not handled one yet. I will probably purchase...

    1792 Flintlock Rifle Finally Arrived

    Did he already have the kit or did you provide him the pieces? I already have the kit but have decided that I am not skilled enough to put it together. So I need to find someone to do it for me.

    Defarbing a 1860 Army pistol

    Try the Harper's Ferry Gunsmith.

    Holster and gear for a pistol

    As you sew more stuff, your stitches get better and more even. I would suggest a sharpening stone with honing oil and a strop for your awl. I was making one of my larger puchases early on and the local leather factory just gave me a long narrow scrap of leather for a strop.

    Holster and gear for a pistol

    I use the Wil Gromhley patterns from Tandy. They are an excellent reference. I have a Tandy Leather Factory near by, it can be rather addicting. If you plan to do a lot of purchases, then I suggest you join the wholesale club. I probably ended up spending in excess of $5,000 dollars there...

    Holster and gear for a pistol

    If you are going to buy some gunleather and want cool looking mountain man/Native American influenced stuff Chuck Burrows (Wild Rose Trading Company) is the man to see. His stuff gets pricey but it is worth every penny. The quality of it is super.

    1851 or 1858 ???

    Murf, I know what you mean. There never seems to be any used Old Armies out there. I have been looking for a reasonable used fixed sight Old Army and have a no luck.

    Were there really Navy 44s?

    I have never seen or read about an original .44 cal Navy Colt. I always thought that the Navy was a scaled down version of the Dragoon (in particular the 3rd Model).

    The Walker makes

    I also love the workout they give when shot with one hand.

    The Walker makes

    Love American Shooting Center. It is the best rifle/Pistol range I have ever shot at. A big step up from the one I used to shoot at in Illinois. Don't know about you but I almost always get one or two questions about my Cap and Ball Pistols when I am out there. As for the Walker, I love...

    Good carrying Rig for a 1860 Army?

    I would say one of the CW type flap holster would be good. You could also go with a slim jim but I would suggest some kind of hammer thong. Lined holsters sometimes give you a snugger fit than unlined. Just depends on how the holster was wet molded.

    Source for M1816 Front Band?

    Do a google search for Lodgewood Manufacturing. They are a place up in White Water Wisconsin that caters to N-SSA guys, but often have earlier parts and such. They won't be cheap. The other would be www.ssfirearms.com in New York. They may have an orginial part or a newly cast reproduction...

    Does anybody shoot a Navy Arms 1803 Harpers Ferry?

    Dixie I did not know that. This summer my plan is to read more about the 1803 rifle and its use. I currently have the book by Reilly titled United States Martial Flintlocks as a starter but I am looking for more info.

    Does anybody shoot a Navy Arms 1803 Harpers Ferry?

    Wulf, I would love to do that to mine if I only had the shop tools and time. Currently, I am sitting on attempting to put together the Track of the Wolf Contract Rifle kit which is basically a full stocked 1803. As of right now mine (zoli) shoots about 5 to 6 times before needing a good...

    Does anybody shoot a Navy Arms 1803 Harpers Ferry?

    Apparently there is a guy out that way named John Zimmerman, who makes Euroarms and Armi-sports into PC rifles. I believe the 1803 is one of his products.

    Does anybody shoot a Navy Arms 1803 Harpers Ferry?

    I have one in .58 cal very non-pc, and was just curious if anybody has had major problems with this model? I believe it was created in the 70s by Zoli. This is the second one I have owned because the first one would not go bang. I love the look of it. :thanks:
