If I can't have an open-top conversion in .41 Colt, .44 Colt, .45 Schofield, or .45 Colt (my favorite!), I'll take the .44 Webley, so long as I...
Gorgeous "musketoon"! Wow! I'm going down a cheaper road and experimenting with muzzleloading, using a single barrel shotgun and a "breechplug"...
Beautiful bird! What's the barrel length on your musket? To my eyes, it looks "handier" than others I've seen. Regards, Bob
My friend, you could have predicted the answer. This bunch of enablers (and I'm one of 'em!) was certain to encourage you. Heck, I'm looking...
I recently bought some 230-grain FMJ bullets for the same purpose. They're heavy, the copper can't spark, the shape seems good for tumbling, and...
@mmb617: A little more info would be most welcome and appreciated! I'd like to have the info on your sources, so perhaps I could upgrade my ball...
Could you share some more info about your tumblaer mods? That sounds great!
I've made some bp, starting when I read Locusts on the Horizon (http://locustsonthehorizon.info/), as a Kindle ebook. They recommended...
Sorry, man! I see the brass frame version around, but the steel frame could be a lot of fun and is harder to find. They’ll backorder, and that may...
Old South sells the steel frame version! Out of stock, though. Bob
Just received a Pietta “1858” in sheriff length from Old South Firearms. They had some items in stock, at least! At Midway, I usually put an email...
Cool! Do you plan to dip the rb end in lube?
I read about one owner who suggested 2 mainsprings in an 1862! Have you tried that? I agree hammer weight would probably help more than anything.
That is a beautiful revolver! And a great photo. Whose make is it? You people are going to cost me some money! I could use a London Navy…I need a...
Don, I love the look of the holster. Great job! And I also enjoy honest finish wear on a handgun. It’s easy to see that you probably know your way...
I took a look at Dell’s website and wound up ordering a flap holster for my Uberti Pocket Police. I called with a question about the holster and...
I also bought an 1862 Police by Uberti, but from Dixie, with the 5.5-inch barrel. I'm thinking to carry mine as a backup to a modern firearm for a...
I suggest you go with the cedar. From what I've been reading, hardwoods make less than awesome charcoal for BP. As I understand it, the open grain...
D'oh! Of course! I may try PVC with hose clamps as a reinforcement, just for fun. Heck, several layers of strapping tape are far stronger than...
Im a student, too. Here’s an article I wrote after I got into making powder. I’m still learning! https://survivalblog.com/2019/10/08/ Regards,...
