Historical Artifacts

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!

Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

Generally speaking, ruins should go to [email protected]

Illustrations of the past should go to [email protected]

Photos of the past should go to [email protected]

Neat looking... But a pita to make and makes the seal between mini-ball + barrel worse, leaving you with more blow-by and less muzzle power.

You wouldn't want to kill someone with your heart pistol.

What if you shoot them in the heart?

Well then you'd obviously be to blame.

You give love a bad name.
