Welcome from Pinckney, MI! I was just out shooting a CVA St Louis Hawken .50 cal caplock this afternoon. Also have a GPR rock lock in .54 cal I built from the kit. Got lots of help from very friendly people here on these forums. I'm sure your extensive experience will be a very welcome blessing here too!
 
Hi sethawa. Ive never made a matchlock but it sure is tempting. Ihave an ordinance manual describing the making of match cord that most any of us could do. Another avenue to explore some time for sure.
I've just put money down on buying one. I also make my own twisted cord and I'd love to see if I could make my own match with homemade grass twine.
 
I am overwhelmed.

Just because i enjoy making my guns You will not find me looking down on anyone’s store bought gun. The first I ever bought was a “Springfield Hawken” which it was neither but after some stock reshaping, the 50 cal no longer busted my cheek bone.

I look forward to our exchange of knowledge. If I can be of any assistance I will post. If i am in need I hope to learn from you.

Thanks.......Lynn

Banjoman......I can only play the radio but i try to learn from all. Everyone has a talent to share with the rest of the world. If I cant do it, at least I can enjoy or learn from someone else that can.
