    JP Beck Silver mounted Pistol

    Something I wanted to do for awhile, was recreate the JP Beck Pistol. It was a fun little project adorned in sterling silver. It is not a bench copy but as close as I could get with hardware I could find. Trigger is forged. Barrel is a Bobby Hoyt .50, the lock is old stock Hollenbaugh/Ditchburn...

    Help needed with age and identification of a Long Rifle

    My first post, so please forgive any mistakes, but I'd appreciate some help regarding a Kentucky or Pennsylvania "Long Rifle" with a Double Set Trigger. I'll begin by saying that it does not belong to me, but I've been sent a generous array of photos from the owner which may help. I'm in the UK...

    Finally connected after many misses last week

    First week of flintlock here in Pennsylvania was fun and also frustrating. I learned quickly that I had not practiced enough with the flintlock, because I missed several deer at rock throwing distance, like 40 yards. One was a doe I missed three separate times with two different flintlocks...

    PA elk hunt results

    So we had six days to fill our elk tags here in the Pennsylvania general elk season, last Monday through today, which is essentially the firearms season for elk. With business and family commitments, I was able to scout last Sunday and hunt until closing hours Thursday. Three friends joined me...

    The .62 rifle took a 2022 deer

    This week is early muzzleloader season here in Pennsylvania. We can take antlerless deer and black bear. It’s probably my favorite season for a slew of reasons: Beautiful Fall weather (usually), leaves turning color, game animals not yet on high alert and pretty easy to stalk or call in, the...

    Drew a PA elk tag, gonna need a ton o’ practice 😳

    Drawing a Pennsylvania elk tag, bull or cow, is a once in a lifetime event, if ever. Only 21 years passed of applying annually and accruing preference points before I drew a cow elk tag on Saturday. Immediately several friends called or texted me and basically said “I hate you, you lucky SOB.”...

    Help with sights

    So I recently finished building my Pedersoli Pennsylvania rifle kit. I am trying to install the sights but they don't seem to fit. The front sight is really really tight, and after trying to give it a few taps with a wooden mallet to get it into place it didn't even start to enter the dovetail...

    SOLD Flintlock .50 cal, Traditions for sale/ trade.

    I purchased a Traditions Pennsylvania rifle a while ago hoping to be well enough to get out and shoot it. Well, that's not happening. Here's the problem..... if I sell or get a decent trade worked out it needs to be near the Louisville Ky area. The rifle is the upgraded version with several...
