I have a I guess you call it a 75 cal. Trade Gun. Smoothbore. Takes regular
12 ga wads. Lots of fun to shoot. I just don't need it anymore. Will take 135

"....I just don't need it anymore..."

Izzat spelled?... it just slams back into my trigger finger and middle knuckle so hard that I'm just tired of getting cut up by it? :evil: Straight stocked .75? Looks like a handful for sure ! :D
 
I was cleaning out my closet and guess what I found. A Peitta 1851 brass
frame .36 colt. It needs a main spring. Will let it go with the trade gun for
say another 50 bucks.
 
I really don't know who made it. I think somebody just bought the parts and
built it.I bought it about 5 years ago. If you need any more pictures of it just
tell me and I can take them tomorrow.
 
I just traded for a .69 caliber flinter,so I'm trying to resist...but I would like to see another picture or two...what kind of charge does it take?
 
What? No muzzle brake on that thing? If loaded right, being in front of it would probably be less punishing than being behind it.
 
Trade ?

See attached.

It is a 1:48 twist

I have tested the gun. It is accurate. I tested 225 prb and REAL bullets from a Lee mould.

I am interested in the canoe gun, let's figure out what it will take to make it happen.

A BIG Thank You

I want to thank you all that responded. I got a good trade going with Hygene
for the Trade gun. Sold the pistol to a guy in Az. I'm trading the trade I got
from Hygene to another fellar that has a T/C Patroit pistol which I dearly want. I just wish I had more of these to go around. Thank you all again. After
talking to these guys on the phone, I found out just how wonderful guys on
this fourm really are. Now for those who are going to enter the competion
E-Mail matches, I'm still going to beat your butt! Whoops forgot about the wife. She just me told me to tell you all to get your crying towels out. I got mine she made for me several years ago. Still use it to.
 
Trade.

The TC is in the mail (UPS).

E-mail sent with details.

Now comes the long wait (for all involved).

Hi Gene

PS: Expected arrival date Fri 10/09 (Look for Santa's Big Brown Truck)
