    Original Enfield Musketoon value

    I found out today that I may be in line to inherit a VERY nice, original Enfield Musketoon. Owned by my Uncle and in his family since the Civil War ended, this piece is in near mint condition. I Know it hasn't been shot for over 75 years, quite possibly not fired since being in service...

    Interesting inheretance

    Does anyone out there know a good link for Luger Disassembly? I just inherited a mint Nazi marked, (numbers matching) PO-8 , and an equally nice WWII issue 1911. I haven't touched a Luger in YEARS, and want to give my new acquisition a thorough cleaning. I have a copy of the Stoeger...

    E-bay shut us down?

    I have been off the internet lately, went on e-bay to browse tonight and found very little listed in support of the shooting sport... What gives? I take it that I missed something. Did they adopt a new anti-gun policy? A total shame if this is true, I got some fantastic deals on e-bay. tbu

    Teaching the non believers

    So... I have this Friend who is rather Anti-Gun. Her ex attempted suicide years ago (and survived the gunshot). Understandably, she has no desire to be around guns.... That being said, I spoke to her at length about teaching her children about gun safety and respect for firearms. She...

    #1 Buckshot as a plinking projectile?

    My T/C Cherokee .32 barrel is due to arrive shortly, unfortunately I haven't found a supply of .310 ball in my area. I was wondering if anyone here has ever tried #1 Buckshot (.300 dia) and a thick patch or double ply of patches. #0 Buckshot is .320 dia and probably too tight for a patch...

    Looking for One Stop Software

    Hey does anybody out there have (or can recommend) a good Reloading computer program. A few years back I saw one that did EVERYTHING... It was An ACCESS based program that took Reloading information and stored it in a neat data base. It also served as an Ammo Inventory tracker. Input...

    T/C Hawken Flint-Percussion Conversion

    OK, I should know the answer to this one...... (but I don't) Is it possible to convert a T/C Hawken from Flint to percussion (and vice-versa) by simply swapping Barrel and Lock Assemblies? Sure would save me a few $$$ and save precious room in my vault. Tbu

    Numrich Arms Minute Man

    I inherited an interesting percussion .45 Long Rifle last year, it's a "Minute Man" marketed by the good folks at Numrich arms, originally produced in the 1970's (I assume) as a kit. Unfortunately the stock has a fracture in the wrist/lock area. I gave it a dose of carpenters glue and wound to...
