Blackpowderwarrior, do you shoot with the French Board Rifles Muzzleloading Gun Club in the Asheville area?

Powder, Inc., in Clarksville AR has RWS #11 caps in stock. I bought 1 case (5,000 caps) to be delivered in November for my friends in three black powder clubs here in the Tarheel State (NC). Also coming in November is a big shipment of Schuetzen and Swiss black powder in 2FG, 3FG, & 4FG grades...

72coupe, I can walk you through the installation of the T/C lock when you are ready. FWIW, to anyone here looking for T/C parts, check with Ed Cain in Williamstown, WV area. Contact Ed at: [email protected] He is the former co-founder & co-owner of Mountain State Muzzleloading Supplies in the...

72Coupe, I sent you a "conversation". I have better sources for T/C parts.

Malachi has the right idea. I clamp my drill in the padded jaws of a good vise. I would add to safeguard the nipple threads, protecting them with a couple wraps of black friction tape. Then, on a slower speed, dress the nipples with emery cloth until the cap fits the nipple tight. You can...

You can buy CVA parts from Deer Creek Products in Waldron, IN. He has a website.

This a repost from the post,"Is it safe to use smokeless powder in a Uberti 1858 repro .36 caliber pistol?" A friend of mine was a volunteer guide at Fort Fisher Military Park just south of Wilmington NC. Every so often, tourists would ask the proverbial question about shooting smokeless powder...

Next to the Pedersoli shotguns, I recommend the double barrel made by Pietta back in the '80's and marked on the barrels "Navy Arms Company". Good, stout, about 7-8 lbs, usually cylinder bore on both barrels or cylinder & improved cylinder. Prices run between $450 & $600, depending on...

A friend of mine was a volunteer guide at Fort Fisher Military Park just south of Wilmington NC. Every so often, tourists would ask the proverbial question about shooting smokeless powder (Hey, its black, they would say) in original or replica muzzleloaders & and cap & ball revolvers. So, he...

This is one of three Hawken rifles I bought together at a local pawn shop. The other ones I sold were made by the late Ted Fellows of Spokane WA, and John Bergmann of TN. I kept the best of the three due to the finesse of the workmanship and its overall beauty, which some think is a...

My best year at Friendship was 1993. I won the National Caplock Pistol (Single-Shot) Aggregate in Expert Class with my Yazel .36 caliber percussion pistol, 290-12X /300 possible. The crowning glory was 93-2X @ 50 yd SF. The national record for 50 yd SF was 94-4X. I was in Hog Heaven that year!

Thanks to you, both are in the hands of youngsters under 13 years. One, 10 years old, shot a 96-2X/100 Aggregate score in the NMLRA/NC Territorial Matches in 2019, placing himself 2nd in the nation in the Sub-Junior Aggregate. Michael was one "happy camper" with your T/C Seneca.

Like Papa G, I shot at Friendship at the NMLRA National Matches, where two or three handguns are required to compete in the 1000 pt National Muzzle Loading Pistol Championship. There's three aggregates, one for caplock pistol, one for flintlock pistol and one for "open" C & B revolver. "Open"...

The flask may have been sub-contracted out by Colt back in the '70's or '80's for their two runs of the Second Generation Colt Model 1851 Navy revolvers. In the first run in the '70's, Colt offered the 1851 Navy Cased Sets in the Grant & Lee Commemoratives, 4,750 each.

I believe Tippy, his son, is still keeping the Frontier Shop open in Cross Plains, TN for folks wanting black powder guns and accessories. Tip was well-known at Friendship on Commercial Row at the National Matches. One of his specialties was (and still is) his stock of drop-in Green Mountain...

I have five or six ROA's but all with adjustable sights, so I can't help you out. Here's a pair that are set up for NMLRA National Matches. The Ruger Old Army .44 "Dragoon" Model comes with the brass backstop & squared trigger guard & Super Blackhawk grip frame. I have had it since 1988, and...

JR Salvo was from the Charleston, SC area. He was a member of the Charlestown Longrifles Muzzleloading Gun Club near Moncks Corner, SC. His specialty was Southern Mountain rifles, plain with few embellishments. JR also excelled in forging throwing axes and tomahawks for the buckskinners here in...

Is your Pietta the "Shooters Model" Remington NMA .44 caliber? Does it have a silver-plated trigger-guard? The above Model Pietta is the only one I know that has a dovetailed front sight.

The only drawback to shooting the R&S is replacement small parts, bolt, hand, springs, etc., are hard to find or non-existent.

I believe drop-in barrels only for the T/C Hawken rifles are available from Tip Curtis. Tip Curtis Frontier Shop 4445 Jernigan Rd. Cross Plains, TN. 37049 Phone: 615-654-4445 E-Mail: [email protected] No website listed.
