    question re: ROA percussion cylinders

    Assuming a Ruger part in very good condition, no pitting, etc.... does $200 + shipping seem a fair price for a second hand spare cylinder for a stainless Old Army?

    made a holster for my target model Remmie

    Posted this in the holster section - but I think black powder folks might appreciate it more. My fourth holster - my own design, a crossdraw for my Uberti Target Model 1858 Remington. Cowhide line with calfskin, all hand stitched, no rivets. Got some things I want to change when I make...

    my latest holster

    Just finished this one last night - my fourth holster so far. I made it from my own pattern for my Uberti target model 1858 Remington with 8" barrel. It's 8 oz - lined with calfskin and hand stitched throughout - no rivets. I like the effects I'm getting with the contrasting edges but I...

    my second holster

    Right after finishing my first piece of leatherworking, a Hunter style holster for a Ruger Old Army, I started with this one - for a Ruger Mark II Govt Target Model. This one gave me lots of challenges - with both the designing and the execution. I wanted a mag sheath that could piggyback...

    holsters for ROA?

    I'm looking for a holster for my Ruger Old Army - nothing too fancy - brown leather with either a flap or a strap. Those old Bianchis were nice but I guess they aren't making them anymore... The Hunter 1100 - 50 seems a possible choice but I'm not sure if it will fit a 7.5" ROA with...

    New Lyman Great Plains...cuppla questions

    I just picked up a new, old stock Lyman Great Plains rifle. It's new in box and still has the sticky stuff on it from the manufacturer. It's been in its plastic wrap in the box since 1992. The owner's manual suggests cleaning the barrel thoroughly with a solvent before using it. They...
