Right around your first birthday I spent an entire Easter Sunday morning watching a hermaphrodite masturbate on a revolving stage while trying to drown my liver in a cat house in Munich.-SM3

While I like my centerfires and rimfires I have a special place in my heart for blackpowder firearms. I started with a Pietta 1860 Army than a CVA Hawkens then I got a Lyman Deerstalker for my son and his fellow boyscouts. Later I got a kit Hawken pistol to work on my gun bilding skills. Today the firearm I always wanted came in. A 1858 Remington carbine from Uberti. Gonna take em all out this weekend and celebrate Memorial Day.

Thanks.
The gun was made in India, but I bought it from Middlesex Village Trading Company, and they "rework the locks" as soon as the get the guns in. Not sure how extensive their rework is, but the locks carry a lifetime warranty with them. |

The .50 caliber is stocked in curly maple and the .36 is stocked in figured walnut. The Bess has a 46 inch barrel and is stocked in walnut. All three were built for me by Narragansett Armes when the were in the Stutz building in downtown Indy. Vernon god, I'd love to own a bess I dont dig flintlock military weapons much......but I love the bess |

Really a Virginia style rifle with too much Lancaster / Germanic influence. Last one is my current hunting rifle. Dickert / Albrecht / Haines influence Lancaster style gun. 54 Cal, 38" Haines profile Rice C weight, Chambers Golden Age Germanic lock, Chambers Haines brass hardware. My own patch box design. Piece of very hard and fairly plain sugar maple. Have 3 more in various stages on the bench right now. A Chambers NE Fowling Piece / Colonial Militia Musket, 2nd is a loose copy of a Wolfgang Haga / Early Reading rifle based upon RCA Vol I #21 and #22 and the 3rd is still a sawed out blank of nice cherry that will be a slim French style fowling piece / trade musket indicative of the early guns used in the upper Great Lakes in the early 18th Century. |
