      Original War of 1812 Brown Bess Musket

      Very neat! What a piece of history!

      Winchester SRC

      I like the looks and balance of the octagon rifle versions but the shorter carbines sure are handy. I killed my first two deer many years ago with a rossi carbine in 357 with my own cast bullets. I‘m a huge .32/20 fan and would love to have a 92 in 32 WCF. Yours look great!

      Full fluted 1860’s

      I think they are one of the most beautiful revolvers ever made. I’d love to get an 1861 as well.

      Full fluted 1860’s

      Nope, it was an original variant, but pretty rare. https://www.militaryimagesmagazine-digital.com/2021/05/31/colt-model-1860-army-revolver-early-fluted-cylinder/

      My counterfeit trench gun project

      Very cool. Trench guns have a certain drip to them! I also am a fain of the Browning designed Stevens. The takedown is very cool. Also, you can drill a hole right in front of the loading port that makes it possible to have it loaded while it’s taken down. Slap it together and pull the pin and...

      Full fluted 1860’s

      Picked up a second Uberti 1860 .44 with the fully fluted cylinder. Wasn’t especially looking for that style, but they are pretty neat. First one shot pretty well but had some cap issues. Going to try this one out some time soon and see how it does. I’m thinking g of getting a set of SlixShots to...

      Help a newb out.

      If you’re just starting out, I’d buy some Hornady swaged round balls to shoot in each of them and some Minie styles for the rifle as well. Once you see what they like, you can get cheap Lee molds and start casting your own. For the revolvers probably around 25gr of FFFg or FFg black powder or...

      All the hate... (Anti-Israel College Campus Activity)

      They’ve been prepping for this for years!

      The Cursed Gun Images Thread

      I was demo’ing a backflow preventer at work awhile back and the air gap fitting was a different style than normal. It reminded me of the big muzzle brakes on some artillery pieces. Woth a reducing bushing and a 1/2-28 tap, I came up with this, as a joke. Posted it on a facebook gun meme page and...

      Texas Rangers Holsters

      I would bet that they pushed them forward for the photographer and then afterwards slipped them back to a 3 o’clock position.

      Plug gauges

      I have been meaning to buy a set for awhile now. Worked some OT the last couple weekends so I decided to pick up a set. I bought a set of .251-500” from eBay. Shars tool shop. Ordered Sunday, delivered today. I got the minus set and it was very nicely made and packaged. Comes in a plastic holder...

      Anyone know anything about Webley revolvers?

      The Brit’s called their version of the 38 S&W a .38/200, because it used a 200 gr bullet. Somehow their math worked out that a 38 (.360”) bullet of 200gr wegut in that tiny little case produced nearly as much power and way less recoil than the 455 Webley/Eley/etc i believe the hammerless...

      Starting Reloading 9x23 Largo

      I have an older (1920‘s-30’s era) Llama that is marked 9mm/38. I have loaded ,38 super cases to 38 acp levels and have also loaded some 158gr cast bullets to subsonic velocities to shoot through a 6” mbarrel that a freind threaded for me. It’s more for fun than anything but they function fine in...
