  1. Kentucky Long Rifle

    This is my review on the Traditions .50 caliber Kentucky Long Rifle kit. (pictured below) DISCLAIMER: This was my first muzzle-loading rifle. I had never held one before, let alone repaired and/or fired one, so please forgive me if I have some of the terminology wrong. This kit is advertised...
  2. First Time Muzzle Loader

    Took it to the range today. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your advice! We had a couple of issues initially, but once we figured out how to clean the nipple after each shot it was a breeze, and an absolute joy to shoot! The flask I have does have a 30 grain funnel, but I took...
  3. First Time Muzzle Loader

    According to the package the funnel is 30 grains. But, after reading all of your advice I think I'm going to go the safe route and get a dedicated measuring funnel.
  4. First Time Muzzle Loader

    The package stated that the funnel/nipple was for measuring and the valve at the junction of the flask and funnel cut off the funnel from the flask once the funnel was filled, thus allowing you to pour the contents of the funnel into the rifle without adding any extra from the flask and allowing...
  5. First Time Muzzle Loader

    Yes, I'm shooting round balls and I have a package of pre-lubed patches.
  6. First Time Muzzle Loader

    It was my understanding (according to the package and instructions) that this was a volumetric powder measure. Is it not?
  7. First Time Muzzle Loader

    Makes sense. Thanks for the info!
  8. First Time Muzzle Loader

    Below is a picture of everything I've got. Again, this is all based on reading the information on Traditions' website and YouTube videos. If I'm missing something important please let me know! Horsehat, just out of curiosity, why does the ball need to be seated firmly against the powder? What...
  9. First Time Muzzle Loader

    First, I'm sorry for the poor quality pictures, but it's the best I could do at the time. I recently purchased a Traditions .50 caliber Kentucky Long Rifle. For those that don't know, the Traditions KLR is supposed to be a fully functional reproduction kit that the buyer assembles. However, I...
  10. Why U No Ship!!??

    I appreciate all of the comments. I kinda' figured people didn't want to ship because of the uncertainty regarding the buyer. Thanks guys!
  11. Why U No Ship!!??

    I totally understand not wanting to get burned. I would be reluctant to give somebody money, unsure if they're actually going to ship me what was advertized, or anything at all. But it's so frustrating for me because I see all of these great deals and I can't have any of them! I made it a point...
  12. Why U No Ship!!??

    I got hooked on the ODT while I lived in Georgia. But, a few months ago I had to move to Texas and, believe it or not, there's nothing like the ODT out here. There's so many good deals but everyone lists that they're not willing to ship. Is there a reason why?
  13. Your Un-Transactable Guns

    This ^^ My wife gave me my Marlin 336 as a Christmas gift about 10 years ago. She had it wrapped up in red, shiny paper and propped up in the corner behind our desk (just like in the Christmas Story). I've had dozens of rifles since then. AR-15's, Ruger Mini's, everything from 22lr's to 7mm's...
  14. My sons first rifle this Christmas.

    I got my boy a Mossberg 802 for Christmas a few years ago. It's light weight, easy to maintain, and he loves shooting it. Can't go wrong with a good ol' Ruger 10/22 either!
  15. Sharps Rifle ***Any Condition***

    I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have an old 1848 - 1880 Sharps rifle that they're willing to part with? I'm not concerned with functionality as this piece will be for decoration only. As long as it's not a moldy lump of rust. It must be identifiable as a Sharps rifle, though. A...
  16. The Official ODT Veterans photo thread.

    I started a thread like this a couple of years ago. These are all from Iraq, 2003 - 2004.
  17. Metro Atlanta Item Relisted! FS Jukar Percussion Cap Rifle

    You sure you're not willing to ship? I'd love to take this off your hands, but I just moved to Texas.
  18. Non-Functioning Rifle or Shotgun

    I'm looking for a non-functioning rifle or shotgun for use as decoration. An old Springfield 1903 or Lee Enfield would be nice. I'm also interested in any kind of wheel or flint-lock rifle. As previously stated, the rifle doesn't have to be in working order. As long as the stock is decent and...
  19. Odd Pet Peeves - What's Yours?
