Here is a .40 percussion I made for Arn in barter for him building my wife's tea house (in the background).  He wanted it stocked in Chinese elm.

I've been using my Cornell Kemper .45 as my "go to" rifle for accurate shooting, but I think I may drag out my Mike Brooks NC-inspired rifle to the NC State Muzzleloader shoot this September.   The trigger is so light once set, I really only have to think about firing to set it off.

Here is my .62 British Model 76 rifle I built from a Riffle Shoppe kit. My new favorite that will be with me for muzzle loader season here in Maine.

These are a few of the incredible rifles built by a dear friend, whom I will not identify.  I think he'll forgive me for posting them and just kinda "let it slide".

Nothing fancy. Just a 42 in C weight swamped Colerain .54 barrel in a "Virginia" precarve stock from Pecatonica , and a Chambers Siler lock.  It's taken a beating over the last 22 years, but has put a lot of meat in my freezer.

My TVM .54 Early Virginia, premium curly maple and the red "Cassie" finish. In three years I've yet to put any powder through her.







The rest of my collection except for a .32 Crockett rifle and a 20 gauge trade gun.

New to the site so thought I'd say hi in this post and show a few of my Jim Fahling Sr rifles that I'm pretty proud of but I'm biased, he's my dad.
Theres a Beck in .54 cal and a Schroyer in .50.
Lots of great rifles on here and looking forward to seeing a few more...

Not a particularly good photo but it does show everything I have that uses a flint.  Three others are percussion and not shown.  While not as many as I would like they're still more than I'll ever need.  I no longer hunt so they don't get the exercise they used to; but it just feels good to have them around.
