    Shot my 1851 that was kept loaded for over two years -Video-

    I know this is dumb to ask but how did you load it? With a greased wad or grease over the round ball?

    Thanks for the civility

    You're videos and busyhands94 are the ones I have watched time and again to learn about the dark side. Mike you are very respectful and knowledgable in guns. Thank you!!!

    Why do some scare people away from Brass Frames?

    Holy crap that's a lot of abuse!

    Black Powder ONLY??

    I don't know guys, but there is just something different with shooting black powder guns over modern guns. I'm not sure if it's the thick smoke, the time to actually sit down with your weapon and fire it, the history or a combination. I know that I get far more enjoyment out of shooting my...

    THR Remington 1858 Club

    Hey Captain, seeing those brass remmies gives me encouragement to really polish mine up and refinish the grips. Those are some mighty fine looking peacemakers. :D:D

    Black Powder ONLY??

    I have a 9mm Hi Point and a Winchester Model 94 (30-30). Honestly I have a love for older guns like the mightly Appalachian Assault Rifle, my Remington and God willing a cap lock smoke pole. I COULD load my 30-30 in black powder if need be. Honestly, I cannot stand the modern Assault Rifles...

    Black Powder ONLY??

    An interesting topic came up on a forum I recently visited and I wanted to hear your opinions. A person said they are really considering going to black powder ONLY. The traditionalist in me salivates at someone saying that. The army buddies of mine are all "tactical lovers". What are your...

    Why do some scare people away from Brass Frames?

    I have to agree with BusyHands94. How exactly is that a problem? :)

    Why do some scare people away from Brass Frames?

    Driftwood I could learn a lot from you I'm sure, as I have only been in the dark arts for just shy of a year. ;) Yeah I agree that if one overloads a brass frame it will become a wallhanger. Because the the Remington's design, I feel safe firing 30 grain loads with a 451 RB. I would dare...

    BP Defense Gun Question

    Yes thanks man! I didn't realize the ballistics were so close to 45.

    Why do some scare people away from Brass Frames?

    Driftwood you bought that gun in when 1968 you said? Metallurgy has changed DRASTICALLY in the last 44 years. Brass alloys are stronger as well as steel. I honestly think that the things we hear about brass guns being so inferior is because #1 you have some "Tim Taylor wannabe" that wants...

    Why do some scare people away from Brass Frames?

    I could not tell you how many times I have read, either on forums or on YouTube, comments where people are looking for advice on their first DARK gun and they get to read "stay away from brass and get a real gun". I hear about frame stretching, cracking, warping, "anemic loads only", etc...

    BP Defense Gun Question

    I completely trust my life in my Brass Frame Remington. I have YET to have a miss-fire or a hang-fire or a chain-fire. I literally spent weeks studying YouTube videos and forums before I went out to the range. I practiced with that revolver many times. I am trained with it. Besides that...

    BP Defense Gun Question

    Yeah but Donny if there is a group of gang-bangers all pointing their guns at you, IMHO the SMART thing to do is run. OTOH the chances of a group of gang bangers all coming at you with their guns is even less than actually having to defend yourself against a single BG.

    BP Defense Gun Question

    StrawHat a bad guy is really not going to care about what a chronograph says about BP and a roundball vs .45LC. (Personally I could care less what a chronograph says about roundball. All I have to do is visit the Gettysburg cemetary to see actual results.) A bad guy is not going to care about...

    Pistols all going out of stock?

    I had a feeling that it was honestly due to such an overwhelming demand. Honestly, for those that wish to avoid the BATF (and any other government "inspection") the black powder revolver and carbine is the way to go. That's why my first pistol was a black powder revolver. Now, there is...

    Pistols all going out of stock?

    I thought the Italian Economy wasn't doing so great. That might be it. I just know that I am very concerned that the factories would shut down. I have just the brass Remington but we all know that just one gun is not enough. :evil::evil:

    Pistols all going out of stock?

    Nearly every place I look the bp revolvers are out of stock (specifically the Remington). Is there something going on? Is it maybe because of the coming election?

    anyone been to Williamsburg Va. lately?

    $10K does not surprise me. The last time I tried to visit there you had to pay to park, pay to get in, etc. That was of course about 12 years ago.
