I was finally in a good position to grab the 10mm I've been lusting after for quite some time. Dan Wesson 10mm Bruin. While it stung quite a bit handing over the cash, I've got it and it's mine! Time heals all wounds i've been told. I've had it out to the range twice and it was all smiles...

I picked up a jug of Hodgdon CFE Pistol Powder and just returned from the range after putting some over a Chrono. For those interested I'll use this thread to post the results. First off I'd like to say it shoots very predictable as the loads increased and I could definitely tell when I hit the...

I read somewhere that people have been known to load BP into a muzzleloader using a tube that gets the powder into the base of the barrel. I've often thought about this because after I wet and then dry swab the barrel I always figured that some of the powder dumped down the barrel would stick to...

Wow, I just received this Uberti 1851 London Navy in the mail. This thing is smooth with a very nice trigger. All steel frame, trigger guard and backstrap. No brass on this one. She's got the looks too, LOL. I definitely like brass with a heat treat along side but figured I'd try something to...

I was just wondering if the idea of a sub-forum to this one was ever considered for selling black powder firearms ? I know of a few other forums sites that do this with great success. I realize that they could just as easily be listed in the handgun classy section but it's always nice to see...

Snagged a Uberti/Cimarron Colt .44 1860 Revolver on Gunbroker. I put in a bid at a low price which was just enough to trip the reserve and i'll be darned if it didn't stick and i WON! This pistol normally sells for $340 and i snagged it for $226 and not to mention it's new and unfired. Love the...

I originally wanted the S&W pro series 1911 then migrated to the Ruger SR1911 then changed my mind and looked at the Remington R1 enhanced model and really thought that was going to be the one. I took a trip to another Gun shop in the area and this Colt 1911 XSE series was there in all it's...

I finally moved my 10/22 build up to the front of the line and got it done. I haven't had a chance to get it out and give er' a run down at the range but hopefully soon. I decided to only install a VQ hammer and springs and bushings. Also a Installed a VQ extractor. The rest of the trigger...

I just run across a couldn't refuse deal on this pristine Traditions Hawken .50 cal muzzleloader. I've got quite a bit of time and experience with black powder pistols but this is my first muzzleloader rifle. I was always debating between the newer inlines and these replicas of the olden days...

Well I couldn't stand it any longer and just had to go pickup a brand new Marlin 1894 Cowboy in 357/38 cal. One thing I did notice is this model doesn't have the hood around the front sight like I've seen on others. It has a fiber optic tube up front. I'll like this better anyhow and will save...

I have to tell you guys.... Me and the wife went out to the range and fired our Uberti Dragoon today. Now my wife has never fired or seen a BP in action before. I let her take the first 6 shots. After the very first shot she had a smile that was ear to ear! After she emptied the cylinder her...

I just finally recieved my new Ruger LCP from the local fun shop today! After work tomorrow I will hit the range and return here to give a report of the LCP's performance. The LCP tucked away nicely in the Desanti Nemesis Holster LCP portrait

Now the wait begins... I just purchased this Uberti / Cimarron 1848 3rd Model Dragoon. It should show up at the door step Monday. I almost went with a Walker this time but this Dragoon just jumped out at me. The Walker will be next on the short list I'm sure. This Dragoon looks to be so...

I just aquired the XD-40 service model in the middle. I can't help it, I just can't say enough good about the XD's. The 1911 grip angle is the high point for me with these. top to bottom / XD45 tactical - XD40 service - XD40 sub compact

I just picked up a very nice deal on gunbroker for this Remington New Army 1858 Armi San Paolo (Euroarms). After my recent purchase of a new ROA the black powder bug has bitten me :what: I just wish I had known how much fun these black powder smokers were in the past but i'm sure I'll make...

It appears as the Ruger Old Army is being discontinued. Maybe this is old news to some but I didn't know it. I'm glad I purchased mine when I did. Click here ----> Ruger Discontinued Models

I just received my Ruger Old Army in the mail today. Just in time for a New Years BOOM!! Probably gonna load about 30gr volume of real BP for it tonight. What are you all going to load for the New Years Boom session ? :evil: :eek:

I'm looking into purchasing my first Black Powder Revolver. I found a great deal on a Ruger Old Army Stainless but it has fixed sights. My question is if the fixed sights present any type of disadvantage or should I hold out for a model with the adjustable sights ?

More Gun Porn Well I was bored outta my skull today so I decided to fiddle with the camera and do some photo editing on the puter'. Here's what I came up with...
