I get the impression you are new to this type of firearm. Percussion, Flintlock, Wheel lock, Matchlock, etc, are all muzzle loading firearms that use black powder for a propellant.
You are correct...
Your time line is a little to early. Percussion would date from the 1830's. Can you post a pic of the proof marks on the bottom of the barrels? We could tell you were they were made.

When I read Rick post, I had to reread your original post to see what I had missed. I thought your answer was very polite.
Keep up the excellent work. I am looking forward to getting a copy...
I was on a notify me when it is available at AIM for about 3 months. Get it while you can.
they look OK to me.

There are photos of the sling . Then a bunch that doesn't display and then some pics of an 03.
Well I didn't take an over all picture but here are three of the serial #, model type , and the indentation.
Stock is original as it matches the barrel and receiver. B4300

Well OK But how do you explain the indentations marks for the collar? If I can get a good pic of the marks i will post it. Is any of this documented anywhere? The serial # is B4300.
I finally took the gun apart. The stock is inletted for the collar like an 03A3. You can see indentations at the inletting where the collar was in place. The wire that holds the handguard is very...
Was this some kind of arsenal repair?
Picked up a model 1895 the other day. It's in nice shape. All matching except the cleaning rod.This is the first one of these I have owned. The pictures I've seen have a hand guard that extend over...
Check with the NSSA in your area. Also black powder clubs. Do you have freinds that shoot BP. You could do a group buy from Graf's and son.
Maybe it was mine.

OK Keith
I have to ask were you in the 44th Division. My Dad was.
Thanks for to input. Wet patches did the job. :D
I loaded some 45-70 with BP and I am going to the range this afternoon. I have always used 2400 before. I know you clean with soapy water. That's what i use on my muzzle loaders. I pump the ML...
I sent an AIM remington receiver and a new remington barrel to Chuck. Had enough spare parts to put one together. Chuck worked his magic and I have a very nice shooter. It keeps me from shooting my...
In the 60's I bought Goex BP in 25 lb kegs. The kegs were metal but after you open them the BP was in a large plastic bag. I would transfer it to 1 Lb cans by pouring it using a funnel.
You may...

I think Graf's powder is made by Wano. I have original Wano and it is a little dirtier than Goex but it shoots fine.
Can't see the pics
Yes I know it's like beating a dead horse. :headbang: In another life I was a course developer and instructor and correct terms were important to me.
Paid a total of 1400 dollars for the parts to build 2 of them.
