Have you been looking for a handy brush gun to go trekking through the bush? A short, lightweight, hard hitting front stuffer to really put the smackdown on some critters? If you have, well look no further. What we have here is a Traditions "Buckskinner" percussion carbine. Before those sleek...

It took a bit to build this kit. I've never done anything like this before. The stock still needs to be stained and barrel blued, but I was really excited to fire it.

335$ Firm shipped to your door where allowed. In nice condition has a few. Handling marks nothing bad. Bore is great with the exception of a streak of brown. I found a piece of ? material inside just down from the muzzle. That spot just about gone with a little CRC power lube wipe. I figured...

I have owned several ML's in the past. Both Hawkens, (percussion) one in 50 Cal and the other in 54 Cal. I decided I wanted a FL, so I started looking at my options. I decided to start out on the low side and ordered a Traditions Kentucky Rifle kit from ML.com. Well, it arrived yesterday and...

It's almost time to add a pistol to my armory. I shoot NMLRA matches so accuracy is a must. Who has first hand experience with this pistol? Would I be wasting my time and money with such a cheap priced gun? Has anyone competed with one? Opinions?

1in48 twist 24in barrel and a plasticstock and fiberoptic sights. This thing is a sin 10x over. Still love it tho. I bought it on sale brand new for 300$ honestly too much but well worth it to me. The lock is good sparks very well. I found on mine the hammer sits a little too close to the...

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...

I am part way through putting my Traditions Hawken kit together, and what might be typical, there are a lot of problems. Biggest besides a general lack of consistency is the lock. Fixed a problem tonight where one of the screws was pulling the entire thing in too far due to lack of support...

Looking for a Traditions .50 Pirate pistol.

Hello everyone. I just discovered this awesome forum and signed up. I'm new to muzzle loaders and just finished my first build: hand carving and finishing a .50 cal percussion Kentucky Pistol. I've already learned so much just perusing this forum. Looking forward to sharing is sharing with all...

Here's an unfinished stock for a CVA/ Jukar type Kentucky pistol. Most of the inletting is already done. A CVA Kentucky lock fits mostly, and the barrel channel fits the flats of a .45 Jukar rifle barrel, although all the inletting just needs some final fitting. Slight chip missing from the...

Howdy, y'all, I'm new to flintlocks, and bought a Traditions Frontier .50 cal. for reenacting. I use it for salutes and battles with the Texas Army. We beat Santa Ana again this year at San Jacinto. I've seen comments regarding quality of Traditions. I bought this online, and it fires powder for...

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...

This Spanish marked lock will fit CVA and similar. 4-7/8x27/32 . This is the older style with a nice bridle and let-off adjustment in tumbler. Beautiful case colors and may never have been used, so consider it as-new. Shipped to CONUS for $100.

Traditions 50 caliber flintlock pistol for sale. It works as it should and throws very good sparks. The blueing is good except a little has been lost around touch hole on barrel (this can be seen in close up picture of touch hole). The touch hole liner comes out easy for cleaning.

I bought this rifle preassembled. I was wondering if any of these issues could be fixed? I will be using this rifle this upcoming deer season and for target shooting. Will these issues affect performance and or safety? The gap on stock joining plate is about 1/16 of an inch on the the side...

I have a used .36 cal Traditions Shenandoah Flintlock Rifle for $550. Has a 1:48 twist and a 33.5" barrel, adjustable buckhorn rear sight, brass blade front sight. Also has an L&R Replacement Lock. I've only shot a few loads through it as it weighs 8 lbs (maybe a little more) and is too heavy...

General opinion of the Traditions .50 caliber (percussion) "Trapper" Pistol"? Here in Idaho I can only use it for target shooting. (or as back-up to my .45 caliber 1911 for self defense) It is not a legal hunting weapon. (except for a tree'd Mountain Lion/Puma/Cougar if/when hunting with...

Here is a little video I did Christmas morning. A special thanks to Lee over at Dixie Gun Works as well as my good friends Don and Shelley over at Ted Blocker Holsters for providing these awesome products for the video. Cheers.

Any help here is greatly appreciated. I've had a traditions percussion woodsman for 10 plus years that I traded for. Got rid of a pistol I didn't like and picked up a great looking, nicely made piece of history (sort of). It turned out not to be very reliable at the time, put it away for several...
