Infos

The processes of building a muzzleloading gun from a kit or restoring a family relic to usable condition is explored to the extent that basic techniques and methods are described so that a novice can build his own gun or carefully work on restoring an original. This work is based on the author's experiences and is further documented by on-line links to videos describing many of the stages or building or re-building muzzleloaders to make them more effective hunting and shooting guns.

---

As the conclusion of a series of inexpensive, introductory e-books on muzzleloading guns, this book explores the possibilities of building muzzleloading rifles, smoothbores, pistols, and revolvers from commercial kits as well as how to carefully restore or completely rebuild muzzleloading relics to usable conditions. These processes are illustrated by commercial blunderbuss, rifle, revolver, and pistol kits from various makers, and by restoring one Brunswick rifle and smoothbore gun, and restocking another to convert it to a powerful muzzleloader capable of taking any North American game. Hunts with these guns are covered in the author's previous softcover and others of the e-book series while this volume concentrates on the structural elements that make muzzleloaders work, and how to assemble and return them to service. Additional insights on the process are provided by active links to related YouTube videos.
