Thank you for sharing.

Thanks db!That's a work of art. Do these come in kits?
Haha, man that sounds like a blast!Years ago I had a Left Hand kit gun. A 1858 or so Enfield .58 caliber copy? Mini balls. Civil War reenactments. I was skinny in high school and got to act as an extra in some cheap Civil War film. Had to get really dirty and wore rags. Confederate. They ran us for miles before the filming to get us really tired. I thought it was fun since I was in cross country and track. Had to be real careful even shooting blanks.
I'll try! Probably need the wifey to do it for me. If it happens, I'll post a link.@OP - PLEASE make Youtube movie.
No sweat, these threads belong to us all, free speech brother!Partly because of this thread...
Reducing the amount of stuff question?
and the resultant fear that the Tidy Elves might make off with my flintlock because I havent used it in a while (well over the commonly mentioned 6 months.... probably more like 6 years), combined with the occasion of Independence Day, got me off the dime to do something about it
Found my BP shooting box in my shop. No small task, think the final scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark only without the organization. Anyway, got my stuff together, walked out to the back yard and made smoke! I was wonderfulView attachment 597722
Even got wifey to tag along for the picture taking.
Life is good!
Apologies for the thread hijack
Lefties unite!My cap and ball 50 Cal I bought it from a guy I met through @AndyinEverson .
But my next one will be a build kit.View attachment 613999
That's what I was thinking something to do this winter.Lefties unite!
Nice rifle, you should get a lot of good shooting out of that one!
Building a muzzleloader is a good winter project, but the used market is so good on these, it seems cheaper to buy used rather build from a kit.
In that case, I can't recommend Jim chambers enough! Mine was a well put together kit with good parts and great service. I recommend contacting him a couple months before you want to start building though, it took him a while to rustle up my parts.That's what I was thinking something to do this winter.
