I'm looking for one. can anyone help me find a dealer of such an item? Preferably a flintlock but i'd settle for percussion.

Check out user, horstheld, on Gunbroker. He's got a double Howdah that may be what you are looking for. He specializes in antique handguns.

Dixie Gun Works. Does it need to be a old one?

[1911 guy]

DGW is a good bet, or just search makers web sites for the odd offering here and there. Most BP handguns tend to be revolvers or single shots, so good luck in your search. Let us know if you find anything promising.

[walking arsenal]

nope, doesnt have to be old, in fact i'd prefer it be a new one.

[Tinker2]

What caliber are you wanting? Side by side, over and under. Any?
I may, I would have to dig to find it, if I still have it. A Parker side by
side 12 ga. percussion with 10” ? barrels. All lose parts, no wood.
Had a side by side .36 cal.? with folding triggers. Kind of a cheap junky
thing . Gone now. I do run across a lot of things at times

Why not make one. That way you can have it your way.

12GA? COOL!!

I would seriously consider buying that monster off of you if you could find it.

We should talk more about that.


To answer the rest of your questions

I'm easy on caliber.

side by side preferably.

Making one sounds fun. Where's a good place to find info on building a muzzleloader?

I will start looking, understand that I have a lot of things in a lot of places.
Did say a lot of places? I meant to say lots and lots. In more then one state.
By you statement,

“12GA? COOL!!
I would seriously consider buying that monster off of you if you could find it.”

I surmise that, yes that would be cool to have. That is the reason that I may
still have it, but that is not what you had in mind as your first choice??
If you could explain in as much detail as possible what you envisioned, as
long as I am going to dig, I could keep a eye out for other things also.
If you like you may E-mail me and or here.

actually im pretty easy about everything. mostly all i require is that it have two barrels. side by side.

It's more for the novelty of sucha thing, i doubt ill fire it a lot but id still like to fire it once and a while.

[Tinker]

Tinker2,

Nice handle there. :D

WA,

Though not a side by side Dixie sells these little kits. It's an O/U swivel pistol. It's .36 cal and can shoot 000 buck or lead shot. I have one I asembled a few years ago. It's got it's quirks, but I like it. It fires every time, but accuracy lacks. Here's one of Dixie's pages on this gun.

Yes I am still looking.

Tinker

Yea, I like it. I use that handle on all the forums that I am on
Maybe we are related?

[Tinker]

"Maybe we are related?"

You listed links for DGW and Track above, so my deducer says you dig muzzleloaders too. Regardless of Tinkering, we must be kinfolk. :D

“You listed links for DGW and Track above, so my deducer says you dig muzzleloaders too. Regardless of Tinkering, we must be kinfolk”

Lets see, do I like muzzleloaders?

Yes, my smallest is .28 my largest is .75 caliber.
I like flint locks but have more percussion

In the planing or thinking stage

.32 or .35 Short (10”) barreled rifle.
And others.

What can I say, I like making things.
Tinkering around.

Must be Kinfolk

Well I have looked in all the easy places. No luck with the double barrel but
did find some things that I needed and didn’t remember that I had, so I will
keep looking.

[walking arsenal]

Dont you love it when that happens, it happens a lot more when you get older. :D
