Same here. I shoot long guns left handed, hand guns right handed, bows left handed. I am right handed but I would feel very awkward shooting a rifle right handed.

http://bondarms.com/ one of my favorites, and it's not just for snakes. Check out the .45/410. Sorry that it is not black powder. I love my '51 Navy, but it is not great for snakes.

If this is a meeting you started, pass the coffee...... I started a year ago and have 8.

There is a great looking black powder gun on the cover of the NRA store spring catalog. I have trouble distinguishing an 1860 from an 1861 when I can't see the bore, is there another way to tell them apart? The cylinder is strange, I am guessing a conversion. The grips are beautiful. I am new at...

Awesome, the flames look great. I want one.

In addition to the others listed, Sterling's

I use my paddle holster for executive protection work. It is easy to draw from while wearing a suit. It is not the most concealable but while in that mode that is not my main concern.

Thanks for the info, I will give it a try.

I am not looking to get it for free and I know I can get them at VTI but I would like to find and older one. Tarnished or dull is fine. I did a really good job antiqueing the finish but the grip frame looks too new. Thanks for any leads.

I am looking for a Pietta 1851 Navy brass grip frame and trigger guard for a project gun I am working on. If anyone has one in the parts bin that they would part with please let me know.

I feel your pain. After carrying mine in the same position for 28 years, I tried a new holster. I bought a Front Line IWB for my Glock 19. It is the type that you can tuck your shirt in. The quality of the holster is fantastic but I never left the house before I switched back to my original. I...

I come up a little short. My favorite is my blued 2 3/4" Speed Six. It is ..38 only, I wish it was .357, I would like to shoot both.

My single action Bond Arms in .357 has a place in SD, my right front pocket.:D

After owning and shooting guns for over 25 years, I bought my first Black powder gun, now I get it.Now I want a Blackhawk in 357. And besides it reminds me of my Fanner 50.

I have a Pietta 1862 Army/Police. This was my first BP gun. I have put a lot of time into removing all of the bluing, defarbing and sanding the grips and I love the antique look of it. I recently swapped my 1851 cylinder onto it and it works fine. I ordered another 1851 cylinder and I am going...
