    Fake Martin Mang.

    Being poor and indigent but in love with the Pedersoli Martin Mang I made one. It's a lot cruder than Pedersoli's, whittling out a pretty breech from a lump of mild steel ain't easy,but it hooks into the stock/tang solidly. Here's my problem.

    Hungry for parts

    Hi Troops. I am aware of all the usual sources,[Track, Dixie, Log Cabin et al]but there must be a ton of un-used parts kicking around our collective workshops.We should try to set up a M/L swap shop.Personally, I have a couple of locks, serpent sideplates, patchbox kits, a whole assortment of...

    accurate pistols

    Does any one have any info on Pedersoli's Le Page, Mang in Gratz or Kuchenrueter pistols? Are there any used ones out there?How could I get a Single-set trigger, or plans to make one. I've made several of the ones in"Re-creating the Kentucky Rifle" by Bivins,Buchle ,Alexander et al, it's a good...
