rifle

After removing the Fourstock from the barrel by pulling the forward pin I noticed no pin for the rear but a wood dowel inside without a way to attach it to stock. Anyone else with a Mowrey noticed this and what is a better way to secure stock, have my ideas but just lookin for other ideas.

I managed to secure a Sharps rifle and bayonet of the Berdan configuration with both the OWA inspection stamp on the barrel and JT cartouche on the stock along with double set triggers and no lever lock. The serial number 57143 is in what I understand to be the correct range for potential issue...

Hey All! I could really use some help I identifying this half-stock rifle. I've done a ton of research and all I can come up with is that it might be an english hunting rifle, or shotgun. It was my great grandfathers, who brought it to the U.S. from Sweden in the 1900s. My dad took it apart...

My grandfather in law gave me this old gun of his for my birthday. Said he bought it years ago when he lived in Kentucky intending to mount it over his fireplace. As history goes he never did and the house burned down ages ago. He always had a liking for the blonde finished rifles but I...

Howdy pards, I managed to get a NIB Lyman trade rifle, 50 cal percussion. Finally took her out and I am flabbergasted by the accuracy of this thing. It’s got the 28” barrel with a 1 in 48 twist. I did some experimenting and found 65 g of 2f to be the best load. I’m shooting a .490 Hornady round...

Tonight a visit to Bass Pro for one thing led to a search for other things not necessarily on “the purchase list,” but things I’ve wondered about and tried elsewhere without success. One such thing is finding a speed loader for the .62 rifle and I suppose for any .62 caliber firearm. The ones...

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...

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...

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.”...

Hi I am selling my COMPLETELY custom muzzleloader. It is a .45 caliber with a rifled barrel perfect for shooting patched round balls accurately. This rifle was hand built by a master gun builder old man about 40 years ago. Early Lancaster .45 cal Douglas premium grade barrel, double set...

Two years later the project is done, the .62 rifle is complete.

I am looking to build a rifle from this kit. I'm looking at this one from track of the wolf. I'm planning on building it during the summer after I move into and get settled in my new apartment. I do have some carpentry experience as well as access to either the majority of tools I've seen being...

Hello freetrappers! I acquired this Hawken from a good friend. He had difficulty selling thanks to this terrible tan paint job. You can see just a glimpse of the beautiful red finish underneath near the lock. Do you recommend using a heatgun or paint stripper? I'd personally go with the heat...

Grandfather found this in a old rundown school in Belgium. So i believe it has Belgium origin. can't find a serial number or any manufacture names or logos. Dying to know. i do have more photos if that can help. Muzzle only lets you post 10 pics at once.

Hi guys, Here is a peculiar example of experimental muzzle-loading percussion rifle. Unlike common muzzle-loaders, the gun has its percussion nipple in the center of its receiver end. Another distinctive feature of the gun is grip safety lever on the upper tang. We need to...

This old girl has been a good rifle. Ardesa .50 cal., Browned barrel, really nice grain to the stock, adjustable rear and dove tail front sight, double set trigger, fiberglass ram rod, etc.. I've taken around a dozen deer with this rifle and she is a tack driver as long as you do your part...

Bought at the CLA convention August 2009. Jim Chambers lock and Colerain barrel. $2000.00.

I had changed out the factory sights on my Investarms Model 120A rifle due to a wandering zero with the factory sights. The new Lyman 57 GPR tang sight has me thinking about attempting to reach out to steel targets at the three hundred yard line. Anyone do this with a similar rifle?
