I've had the unfired 1861 Custer .36 for a few years now. I figured that would be the gun that I'd sell when I found another that I really wanted. But, recently I was offered just about a grand for the gun, which is a pretty good deal, but then I realized I did not want to sell it. So, if I'm not gonna sell it, might as well shoot it.
See the pics in the reply.

I found a new stash of originals. I went to a gun store in MA to look at a Ruger .45 for my son and they had a case of originals. I narrowed it down between a Colt 1862 Pocket Police .36 and the Remington .44. Since all of my old guns are .36 I went with the Remington. It was reblued long ago, which is fine by me (it protected it). Matching numbers, several inspector's marks (mostly W), nice cartouche, great barrel address. It came with 2 repro cylinders and a bag of old nipples. I think the previous owner used the repro cylinders for shooting.

I will be getting some pics soon. But I wanted to give first dibs to you guys on these two pistols of mine.

The 1858 Euroarms New Model Army is in 44 cal and steel frame. Just bought it in Sept of 2011. The thing shoots perfect. Had it steadied on a rest at the range and it puts 3 shots in the same holes out of 6. The rest were all in a 3 inch area. Timing was perfect out of the box. Grips are just there, no real finish but rugged looking natural.

The Tower pistol is a Hawes .69 cal, 9 inch barrel flintlock pistol. "CHARGE!!!" Wood stock has always been buffed and simonized waxed since I have had it. Been 3 years now. New mainspring built by a gunsmith. Sparks can be pretty consistent when you get this horse pistol out of storage, clean and oil everything and line up the flint, and double check nothing is too tight or too loose. All metal surfaces are pretty clean and there is only surface rust that develops in the bore after sitting for more than a week. It usually cleans up with several run through's. I can include 19 .692 cal round balls, two extra english flints, a large spout powder measure 10-120 gr., and a pan primer.

I would like to get near $240 for the Euro 1858, and about $150 for the Tower with the extras included.

Anyone had a BP shotgun w/ poor ignition before? Just looking at the nipples they seemed to have longer and narrower flash channels than my BP revolvers, so I took them to a gunsmith who shoots CAS and explained the situation thinking he'd just drill them out for me. He told me the nipples look fine and he didn't have a bit right for the job anyway. His only suggestion was to pack it down real good.

I typically use 30-50grn fff 777 with either a CCI or a Remington cap, and a 60cal patched ball. Thing won't shoot but once every five times or so.

Change from 777 to Goex? Use a few grains of ffff at the back of the barrel? Try Remington magnum caps? Anyone had this issue?

44 years married to the same woman; it must be love after all! Had to replace a few parts: two knees, one hip joint twice, steel rod in the thigh bone for a few years that later came out. Various patches and bent parts here and there. Kinda like your favorite revolver with a few new parts and repairs, but still gets the job done.

I bought the BP muzzleloading shotgun, now I gotta shoot it at least once (maybe more if it and I survive).
So, FFG powder seems correct.
Any suggestions for shot size for testing, target shooting, maybe clay birds?
Can you use cardboard for wads?
Any suggestions, tips, info, warnings would be appreciated.

What is the consensus, if any, on shooting antique shotguns with Damascus barrels? I'm looking at an antique Belgian double barrel 12 ga that looks pretty good as a shooter. I know the barrels can unravel, split, etc, but is that common?

Actually this is 2 reports, one from Sunday and one from today. On Sunday a friend came over with a 22 "Peacemaker" by FIE that I repaired for him a while ago and said let's go shooting....which happily, I already was gonna do, truck was 1/2 loaded with gear before he showed up. He also had given me a Savage 99 in 30.06 to check out as it wasn't extracting the shells after firing, so we took it, my Remie 45lc factory conversion and my Centaure 1860 along with a clanger, cardboard target holder in a metal frame (actually one of those stick in the ground for sale signs that the realitor left here when we bought the place some 18 years ago and some empty tobacco cans. 5 minutes later we were in the hills setting up. 1st, the 22 I fixed.....worked like new, shot all over the place, good ole FIE. Next the Savage, he was shooting reloads and they weren't extracting so I took some Winchester factory loads to try also, the bevels on the rim of the reloads didn't look just right. Tried out both kinds, factory loads went just fine and the reloads hung up evertime...problem diagnosed and fixed. Jesse asked me it he owed me anything for the, figuring out part and I said no, but if I had kept it any longer in my shop I was thinking about charging him storage LOL. Next the Remie, I shoot 230RN over 7.7g Unique. At both 25 and 35 yds I was getting mixed results and couldn't figure out why. Next the Centaure, 454RB, 30g fff, couldn't miss with my eyes closed!! Jesse has owned a bp Pietta for over 15yrs and has never shot it...he had so much fun, in the next week or 2 we're goin out to get him the gear he needs to shoot....another convert to the "dark side"

Todays report. I couldn't rest with the results I got on Sunday from the Remie, so I went out again today. Just cans and a clanger this time, 15yds on the cans and 25yds on the clanger. Again, for the 1st 2 cylinders I was as consistant as Ray Charles!! AND THEN THE LIGHT BULB WENT OFF OVER MY HEAD!!! Duh, since you can't really "see" the front site dummy, put the diopter on your glasses!!! Instant change, one handed I'm about a 75% batter, two handed, I'm pushin' 100%. Not looking to shoot cloverleafs by any means, but on my final 2 cylinders, 5 shots took out the five tobacco cans and the remaining shot banged the clanger each cylinder. Nuff said, case closed, BTY, I CAN see the front site on the Centaure, it's aged brass. Here's my Remie with a modified trigger guard.

I just bought a R&S a few weeks back from DGW.
Paperwork inside the box listed an address for parts, repair, and service.
I emailed them once w/ no answer, so I then wrote a letter by mail to them 2 weeks ago.
I just got my mailed letter back w/ a label on the envelope stating "out of bussiness"
I know someone is still making them as a the date code is CH = 2011
So who;s the maker now and where are they located?

I believe i mailed my letter to Virginia.

I cant see to clean my guns after I shoot them. I always disassembled them completely and cleaned them good. I cant see the screw heads now. I have nueropathy in my hands and cant hold screw drivers or do things that need to be done. I cant see to give the cleaning they require so Im certain Im going to sell.

Hi All!
I have to move off some of my treasures to make way for others and to keep momma happy sale!
I have two Uberti Lyman new model Army .44 revolvers for sale. These are much much superior to what we see nowadays from Uberti. I consider them excellent examples of old Uberti quality from their golden age.
Real beauties both with superior oil stained grips that time has mellowed into a wonderful hard look and color that the poly stained modern ones will not ever have.
Anywho haven't done too much research but I figure $500.00 for the pair outta get em moved to a new home.I have not fired these guys and they are very very clean possibly unfired.
Lemme know if I can answer any questions or send pics?
Thank You!

Whew...there went the rest of my waining youth LOL!! Been workin' on this gun seem's like forever! First, here's all I had to do:
1. Make new hammer.
2. Invent and make sear system.
3. Make patch to hold plate to frame that connects the grip.
4. Straighten out the trigger guard.
5. Make new springs, A) Main out of a Remie main, bent like a Walker spring
B) Spring for sear out of a pocket watch spring
C) Trigger return spring out of Brownell's bar stock
D) Loading lever latch spring out of some expanded light coil spring I scavanged from a broken VHS rewinder.
6. Fix broken front site by drilling and riveting new post.
7. Make new loading lever retainer at front of the barrel.
8. Make new hammer bolt out of an old FIE hammer bolt.
9. Color everything to match the original as best I could, the last pic is closest to the actual color.
10. Fix hidden crack in the grip so the screws would hold tight

No it will never be a shooter, the bolt and hand are one piece and the bolt is worn so that the chambers are out of battery when they lock up even fixed I would never deem it safe to shoot.
Here's some pic's in the reply [post below

Going out to Boca Reservoir near Tahoe with 14 well armed friends to blast away all day in the middle of nowhere. BP revolvers, flinters, shotguns, leverguns, 1911's, caplocks, hunting rifles, an 1861 Springfield, assorted modern semiauto pistols, an M1 carbine that served in Korea, and a 1907 Peacemaker.

This is the range.

It's that open finger of dirt pointing east by north east. Totally unsupervised, it comprises just open land, a dirt road leading up to it and some rocks to define the parking area. I'm bringing a helium tank and a month's worth of recycling (cans), Jason plans to bring a couple of old TV's, Skip and Jeff have built a steel hanging target that one can also spike fruit or stuffed animals on top of. We also plan to stop by Safeway on the way there and pick up some vegetables for execution by firing squad.

I've been itching over this one for a while now. One month to go. . .

For sale...one Parker Hale British made Enfield .58 caliber musketoon from the original guages.
This one I have owned for at least twenty years!
The very best Parker Hale musketoon ever made.
Rifle has a been there done that look that I fell in love with ...Believe previous owner scrubbed the blueing off or simply used it enough to have that look of an old veteran rifle. I shot this one with a buddy probably fifteen years ago and we were getting six to eight inch groups offhand at a hundred yards. This was with standard mini ball not the dedicated enfield slug which surely would give better groups.
Rifle feels great to hold and shoot and will not be left behind at range time because its a beauty queen or something. The kind of rifle one shoots and never worries about it getting banged up etc. Great look!
Would like to get $375.00 shipped for this guy.
Could be cleaned up and reblued easily if desired!

Pics available!

Im suprised at the distance that 70 grains will accurately throw shot. Dennis brought his turkey gun over and we went to the woods. Tried it at 30, 40, and 50 yds It does have a little recoil

Ok, I know it's technically off-topic, but I bought my first gun that uses cased ammo the other day. It's a Beretta PX4 in 9mm. I've only taken it out once (immediately after I picked it up) and it was a lot of fun. Totally different experience to shoot that my BP revolvers of course, which was pretty much the point of buying it. I'm still more accurate with my 1860 out at 25yds, I think this new-comer will zero in with practice.

Hmm. It occurs to me that since the PX4 was introduced in 2004 I just skipped right from the 19th century firearms to the 21st. Maybe it's not that I don't like modern guns as much, I just don't like 20th century guns. Heh.

I recieved my R&S from DGW y-day.
It has perfect fit and finish.
The hammer throw is about 1/2 of a Colt Army.
The grip fits me perfect and it is slightly larger in my hand that a 58 Rem-
A heavy gun and it actually looks better in person.
Nipples seem no problem to put on with fingers.
My load lever is blued instead of casehardened.
Probably the best lookin and functioning revolver I have ever owned.
I cant w8 to shoot it.

thx for recommending this revolver.

A holster rig will be coming soon, as i intend to keep this one.

I got the muff pistol in Maine (Kittery), and the Colt in New Hampshire at an auction. Great deals.
The 1851 .36 is unfired and has a really smooth action. The only writing on it is a faint ASM under the loading lever and an Italian proof mark and date code under the pins where barrel and frame meet. Nothing on the barrel top or side of the frame. I don't think it was defarbed, just made that way. The nipples are a little mashed from dry firing.
I soaked the nipple and barrel on the muff pistol in a break-free spray and after a few days, the nipple came out and the barrel unscrewed. The grips have some hard to see carvings. The only marks (found in a few places) are Roman numerals VIIII. No names, nothing. It's old but in great shape (it has an old weld repair to the hammer). Maybe the VIIII means '54, or it's a makers mark. I think I might shoot it (approx. .41 caliber). I'll definitely shoot the Colt.

I've looked everything up on Cabelas and can't find the capper or the slim jim holster, I figured the holster at $20.00 and the capper at n/c. Total retail at cabelas is approximately $410.00, plus S&H, and that's with the revolver on sale at $229.99. I'd like $355.00 shipped, insured w/ delivery confirmation thanx. (more pic's if you need them, just ask)
