WTS 18th Century French Trade Gun

Excellent build (builder unknown) from Track of the Wolf kit for the French Type D trade gun.

Beautiful black walnut stock, iron mounted, 42 inch barrel, 20 bore. German silver front site. Will need a replacement rammer, the one included is too small in diameter.


$700

Re: Handseaxes - works in progress

Nice looking knives and good work, but I hate to say they bear little resemblance to originals. They should be whittle tang construction and have typical European wood grips. I have never seen an original seax with riveted scale handles.

Rope Edging with a File

Any helpful hints on doing rope work edging on 16th century armour? I know some was done with a chisel, but I am wanting to do this with a file.

Re: WTT for Walther P-38 or Mauser 98k

Soviet captured Mausers run the gamut on quality, markings and suitability for re-enactment. I have owned them with all markings peened, but I have also owned them with no Soviet markings, other than being reserialed. The average price for a Soviet capture with markings is hovering around $300 to $3...

Have any old miniatures laying around? Want to turn them into cash, or even better accurate belts? I have several buckles on the work bench, along with some horsehide straps. I would be willing to make you a belt in trade for your miniatures.

Re: Any Interest in Double Soles for Boots?

You do not want the nails to clinch in this type of sole, it would be very hard to remove them for repairs at a later date. I have put in 1000's of nails in shoes over the years and never needed to clinch them.
