    Still reading print media?

    I subscribe to Muzzleloader and few trade journals. When I was a boy I loved to read my grandfather's American Rifleman and other fish and game magazines. It seems like about twenty years ago the F&G magazines changed from publishing stories to publishing reviews. There were so many articles...

    NEW T/C Hawkens!

    I got the feeling he really wasn't all that interested in side locks, and might get around to the Hawken after he had established his modern in-line muzzle loaders.

    NEW T/C Hawkens!

    The curious might want to check out this thread on the "Vendors and Manufacturers" forum: https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/threads/the-return-of-thompson-center.183111/ If you listen the interview with Gregg on Ethan's "I Love Muzzleloading" podcast you will get some information on the...

    Kibler Brown Bess?

    You are right, but that's true for all of Kibler's kits. The historical origins for all of Kibler's firearms can be located east of the Mississippi. About 70% of the population in the US lives east of the Mississippi. Another reason we see so few Brown Bess reproductions out here might be...

    Kibler Brown Bess?

    From an eye witness: "William Lloyd, a New Jersey militiaman, recounted the aftermath of a skirmish near Freehold in 1778:'The enemy then retreating precipitately, throwing away many of their guns. I was, I believe, the foremost in the following, got as many of their guns as I could...

    The Return of Thompson-Center

    Enquiring minds want to know...why's that? In the interview with Ethan he appears to be focused on in-line hunting rifles. That seems to be where the money is in BP. My guess is they will bring out unmentionables first. The unmentionables manufacturer in the video has gone down hill in the...

    The Return of Thompson-Center

    @Badfinger Thanks for posting the video. No mention of the Patriot, unfortunately. It will probably be a while before they have new ones for sale. I hope they improve the stock. Used patriots are usually overpriced.

    The Return of Thompson-Center

    Not everyone has the time or money to sit down at an excellent Mexican restaurant every time they have a hankering for tamales, much less fly to Cancun. My first ML in 1972 was a H&R Huntsman, a precursor to modern in-line BP rifles. It was wrong is so many ways. I could only aspire to a T/C...

    The Return of Thompson-Center

    You're probably correct on that, especially if they are made in America, which I hope they are. Kibler also hinted that he might be working on a Hawken kit next. It's difficult to find any decent BP rifle for under a grand. I have a Traditions flintlock Mountain Rifle that was less than a...

    The Return of Thompson-Center

    Good question. It looks like most used TC Hawken rifles sell for around $500, so I would guess they will come in less than a thousand dollars.

    The Return of Thompson-Center

    Give a listen to the podcast @ILoveMuzzleloading. Gregg lays out the plans there.

    The Return of Thompson-Center

    Ethan @ILoveMuzzleloading interviewed the head of Thompson-Center on his podcast. Their first goal is to bring out in-line rifles in time for the hunting season, while the more traditional "Hawken" style rifles will come out later on, maybe next year. It will be interesting to see if their...

    Walmart caps

    The local ML supply said they haven't be able to get any caps, and that industry mergers were to blame. The only caps he's been able to get a hold of are RSW and only in limited quantities.

    SOLD 1841 Mississippi Rifle .54

    Nice rifle. Someone is going to remind you to post a photo of the gun with a piece of paper with your name and the date written on it, as per the rules of the Classifieds.

    Progressively rifled barrel for Enfield 1853/58

    Jon Huggett's KNOWING THE ENFIELD VOL. 1 arrived yesterday. Wow. What a stunning book. I also got a hold of a copy of C.H. Roads' THE BRITISH SOLDIER'S FIREARM. This will keep me busy for a while.

    CLOSED 1851 navy steel frame

    I've been looking out for a London 1851 Navy, like the rest of you. I guess that explains why it is difficult to find one under $400.
