Whats Next you say? Why you quit making reasonably priced, sidelock guns, of wood and metal and go to only in-lines with plastic stocks and electronic ignition of course.  :qz:

As an aside, I tried some of that "smokeless powder" in my favorite briar pipe.  Yep, it were named keerectly. 'SNTY"
Young guys should hang out with old guys; old guys know stuff.

canyonman,
sounds like you're as ticked off at a certain Georgia company that had their guns made in Spain as I am.  fght

You got that right Greybear, while I can't say I was ever a great fan, back in the 70's their Mt. Rifle was tough to beat for the price!

Snail Brass Cap Dispenser- $250  'shok'

Beautifully crafted reproduction of a genuine mid-19th century English percussion cap dispenser. Designed to dispense one percussion cap at a time directly onto the nipple with absolutely no fuss or fumbling even when wearing gloves. Anyone who has ever hunted with muzzle loading firearms knows how indispensable these items are and good serviceable originals are becoming very difficult to find, not to mention prohibitively expensive. Our reproductions are hand made by us in solid brass and are functionally and esthetically indistinguishable from the originals. Never before available from any source in this quality. We are proud to offer these in two styles both of which measure about 2" in diameter x 3/8" thick.
