Are there still kits available to make your own black powder pistol or rifle? I remember many years ago a friend of mine made a rifle while we were stationed in upstate NY and to test it he had to use a 200% powder load. At the time he lived in a mobile home way in the country and he stapped it to his porch railing. When he pulled the rope attached to the trigger it nearly blew his trailer off the stands! Sure was funny and load too!
