    Caywood .62 cal Rifle Fusil?

    I've had my Caywood I. Wilson .62 smoothbore for over ten years now and I love it, and I'll never get rid of it. Now I don't believe I'll be getting anything else from them. Now Jim Chambers.... Happy holidays, One Ear

    Smootbore Decision

    Take a look at Caywood's smoothies. I've been shooting mine over 10 years now, and I'll never get rid of it. Although I can't do it anywhere near as much as I would like, remember---practice, practice, practice. Happy holidays, One Ear

    Making a knife out of an old file?

Now I haven't forged but 2 knives; the rest were ground and filed. I feel the only real difference between the two is the price. I...
