Other side of new horn. This is the other side of my new horn.

I will get some this weekend.

As a good friend it was relatively cheap, this horn would probably be several hundred or more depending on the detail that is ordered up.

Yes it is, this guy does this by hand starting with a raw horn and works and works at it until he likes it. He is even wrong-handed, I mean left-handed. This is He at Fort Halifax Pa festival.

Just got my horn from my friend who does this kind of work from scratch.

British Dragoon Here is my MVTC British Dragoon with browning, a front sight soldered on trigger works polished wood darkened and brass darkened, I like it better than the bright. Oh yea a few tacks to match my trade rifle. Your rifle looks great as it is, just throwing my version of a MVTC...

Here is some novice tacking.

I just got to tacking my Bess/trade rifle, The rifle didnt have any real value as it was so I decided to modify it with help from one of my French Indian era pals. I solderd a front site from Tracks rifle parts. I really like the results so far. Brett.

Brown Bess frizzen My Japanese Bess from Dixie doesn't always open the frizzen fully when it fires. Is this common or do I have a spring with too much pressure? All of my other flints open the frizzen fully when fired. Thanks for any input Brett.

What type of buttons did Curly use on the musket earlier in this thread? http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p246/Iggy25/tradegun.jpg?t=1218233121 Brett.

Pedersolli for sure and a cheaper one that I am not sure of.

Has anyone had experience with a Screw barrel pistol, loading, shooting, etc? Brett.
