    SOLD CVA sxs 12 gauge

    Yup, the same one I just bought off of here a couple months ago. I have some expenses coming up that need taking care of. Bores are clean and measure .712" at the muzzle. I've not fired it, honestly it doesn't look like it ever has been. Asking exactly what I gave for it... $425 shipped.

    Finished my Colonial

    This is my Colonial in .54 stocked in cherry. I was convinced I needed a brass patchbox, so I went ahead and took my best swing at it. I was regretting that decision about 4 hours into the process, but now that it's finished, I like it and I'm glad I did it. I initially wanted to do the dark...

    Patchbox spring placement & function question

    Hi folks, I've got a question regarding the function of a patchbox lid on a rifle I put together. I bought the patchbox from Track of the Wolf. I followed the instructions pretty well I think, but I seem to have a situation where the lid doesn't really want to fully close unless I snap it shut...

    Frizzen doesn't want to brown

    I'm using Laurel Mountain Forge to brown a colonial. It's mostly going okay, but the frizzen really doesn't seem to want to brown. I understand it's harder stuff, but is there a trick to getting to match the rest of the parts? The barrel and lock plate look really nice.

    Underlug hole elongation...

    What is the correct tool for doing this? I'm using the finest point rifflers file I have and it seems to be a pretty slow go. Also, how much should the hole be elongated? Are we talking a few thousandths, or daylight on each side of the pin? Thanks all...

    SOLD *Or trade* Lyman GPR .54 flint w/L&R

    I've got a .54 Colonial on the way (it's finally ready!). So I've decided to try and move this along before I do anything too crazy with it. I had a notion to remove the chambered breech portion, set everything back the required amount and put a white lightning liner in it but the juice isn't...

    What to do with a "spare" GPR... Rebore?

    I have a question for the folks that have gone through the reboring process. I have a .54 Colonial on order and I'm wondering if there's anything interesting I can do with my current .54 GPR to keep me from wanting to just sell it. I already put an L&R lock on it, so what's a few more bucks if...

    Bad influences

    Is what you folks are. I could have pocketed this money and squirreled it away for a rainy day. But everyone's pictures of beautiful woodsrunners, colonials, and southern mountain rifles was finally too much to bear. After weeks of agonizing over woodsrunner/ colonial, .54 or .58, and which...

    Pedersoli Availability?

    I'm looking at options for another flintlock, and I was looking at some of Pedersoli's offerings as a fall-back. However, when I search for a particular model I usually find any website that lists that model is typically out of stock or unavailable. Do they just do periodic runs of certain...

    Hello from Badgerland

    Hi folks. Decided to sign up because it seems you have a very active group here. I've been shooting muzzleloaders for ~20 years now. That said, this was the only the second year I've taken one hunting, and the first year I've successfully got a deer with my GPR flinter. I hope I can soon get...
