The history and development of the bullets and cartridges used in the Pattern 1853 Enfield rifle-musket
I am deployed to the Middle East region until Fall 2021. Thank you for supporting my (very) small business, which is now going on 13 years! That’s hard to believe, and I am sincerely grateful. I appreciate your patience and look forward, God willing, to fully re-opening when I get home in the winter of 2021. It is the honor and privilege of a lifetime to lead American Soldiers in the defense of our Constitution. Your prayers for the success of our mission, and above all the safety of my soldiers, are of course very much appreciated.

EVERY product sold here is made one at a time, by hand. I ship most orders in 72 hours but occasionally may take a little longer. I appreciate your patience and understanding. I'm just one guy with an old dachshund (and he doesn't help much).
