My collection

Shared these on the general page, but thought more people might be interested on this one. Thank you for looking

Those look very interesting. Maybe when nobody is looking, you could get close up photos of the individual pieces. Very nice !

Nobody except you seems interested, so I’ve put them all away again. Thanks for looking

I had the same question! One lefty in a nice collection of "properly fit" weapons. : )
I'll assume that reflects many, many years of research and collecting.

It’s a little .45 smoothrifle. I shoot left handed, as my right eye is no good. I shoot mostly right handed guns, but this one came up at a reasonable price, so I thought I’d try it. I find it a bit awkward, but love shooting it.

Nearly 50 years of fun! Hoping for many more yet and a few more guns maybe.

Happy to take closer photos of particular guns, or a bit of description, if anyone is interested

Well, I already asked about the doglock in the first pic. I took the Op's advise and contacted Loyalist Arms about the (3) Indian options. Those are all a month or more out. I have not made a decision, but; that photo did pique my interest. I do a lot more talking than buying. For those who missed that discussion: the OP's doglock is a custom build, while I asked about availability and options to me in USA.

Awesome. Love that long dog lock. Who made the trade gun with tacks in the second photo?

 

[DOUBLEDEUCE 1]

Any photos you might be able to provide would be appreciated.

Hi Maurice. Yes I had that Tennessee 32 cal, but someone wanted it badly, so I passed it forward. Traded it for the 1842 US percussion pistol. Turkish rifle barrel was made up by Paul and is now in the USA. I still have a couple of guns over there.
The trade gun is one of Paul’s. Hope you are well

Hi Cositrike

Great looking collection. A mix of both replicas and originals. And a nice mix of different types/styles. Appears you have the same disease I do. And there's no known cure. LOL I especially like the doglock musket also. And I second/third the motion for more pics and details of that one. I too am both a shooter and collector. That's probably why I don't shoot better than I do. Can't seem to stay with just one gun. My interests are too broad.
Again, great collection and variety.
Just so you won't feel lonely, here is a pic of my flint pistol collection. About 2/3 years old so there's been some new additions since then. Don't know how I would go about photos of all the long guns, percussion, and BPC guns. LOL

On the other hand, I wonder how many on this Forum own just one muzzle loader ? LOL

First time I've seen a pistol made out of a stick !! Impressive collection. . . As for the original post, as a LH shooter, I'd like to see close up pics of that LH rifle.

CosiTrike, if it is not too much of a bother, could you list which of your muzzle loaders are originals and which are modern replicas?

That is quite a collection, Rick. I think I am feeling a little envy.
