JOHN SIPLE - TRAPPER PISTOL
This went a lot faster than I thought it would. I actually finished the pistol kit in a weekend. I would strongly advise kit builders to take their time and work slowly though. There are many chances to screw things up. This Traditions kit had nicely finished brass and the barrel and lock fit well in the stock after a bit of work on the lock cutout. I blued the ends of the cut off lock screws and buffed the ramrod ferrule but the other metal work is straight out of the box. The trigger and lock were perfectly adjusted. Too bad I don't hunt. This is the pistol with a browned barrel. I've taken it to the range twice now and it's a very accurate shooter, but rather heavy in the barrel so not easily held on target. also, 30 grains by volume is plenty, though some sources say the maximum load is something like 45 for this gun.

DAVE - GREAT HUNT
Don, I received my 1st issue of Chronicle of the Old West and I am enjoying it very much. I am enclosing pictures of a turkey I took in the spring with a Pedersoli side by side muzzle loading 12 gauge and 2 deer taken in November with a Traditions 50 cal Kentucky longrifle. I got the doe in the morning and the buck in the late afternoon from the same ground blind. I enjoy going to your web site and looking at everything, like a kid with a wish book. thanks again, Dave
JIM'S PAIR OF 1851 COLTS
Don, I am sending you 2 pics of the 1851 Colt I built from one of your kits. I imbedded two 3 cent US coins (1851 of course) in the wood grip. Heads showing on one side, tails on the other. Kind of gave it a personal touch. The gun handles very well and I enjoy shooting it very much.You supply a wonderful kit. Regards Jim
