Long time flinter who also enjoys percussions

[LECook]

I’ve been making my own muzzle loaders for over 30 years both flint and percussion. As a long time member at ALR I thought i would join here as it seems a bit more cap gun friendly with a wider variety of interests.

Thanks for letting me in......Lynn

Thanks gents. I’m thinking about an underhammer. Never made one before and I bet there is some experience to be found here.

I'm looking to get into flint and matchlock myself.

Welcome, I have the Flints as a YET, percussion, in-lines, revolvers yes I have been sticking there because I am already tooled for making my caps.

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.

Hi CVA. I have always wanted to learn the art of the Tap a Cap or modern equivalent home made percussion cap. I just saw a post here on the forum to adapt the modern small pistol primer using plastic tubing to fire our percussion guns. Remarkable!!!

Ive been here only a short time and already the old dog has picked up a new trick
