For years the sport of black powder muzzleloading
shooting has been steadily growing. Every day our ranks
increase as more and more people discover the enjoyment
of returning to a simpler time when life had a greater meaning
to all. In the days gone by a man relied on the best darn
rifle and accoutrements he could afford. He knew there was
no skimping when it came to reliability, quality and performance.
To-day this still holds true. The avid shooter of black
powder rifles demands the best which is affordable to him.
This is why we at York County Gun Works created the "Longrifle
Kit".
Not being satisfied with what the market offered
in kits we decided to put together a kit which was simple
to build yet can be dressed to the hilt with added finerys.
Of course our first concern was to gather together the highest
quality parts which would make up a classic rifle and use
them exclusively to put the "Longrifle" together. For a
lock we chose our own famous Clark Lock for its dependability,
classic style and top notch performance. The premium barrels
are all by Green Mountain Barrel Company, and are designed
to place the ball where it should be everytime. The nose
caps, ramrod pipes and side plates are supplied by Cash
Manufacturing and we think that Tedd Cash puts out the finest
brass and steel hardware found anywhere.

Now we turned or efforts to help the average
builder by doing more for him than the other kit producers
have. The barrel, breech and tang not only come 100% inletted
but are also installed and pinned. The Ampco touch hole
liner is also installed and is in perfect alignment with
the fully inletted lock for the fastest possible ignition.
A big problem for the builder is the butt plate, so we have
cut our stocks as close as we dare to match the plates,
this alone saves hours of hard labour. The hard Canadian
Maple stocks have been pre-shaped from muzzle to butt, and
have the ramrod hole drilled full depth, however we have
left just enough wood so you can get a little creative with
some relief and incised carving if so desired. The trigger,
trigger guard and side plate have all been inletted, and
to save even more time and worry we have drilled, tapped,
assembled, and hardened the lock to ensure the best and
fastest ignition. A hickory ramrod with brass tip and cleaning
jag are also included.
As an extra bonus each kit comes complete
with a full size measured drawing of the "Longrifle" and
easy to follow instructions. The only inletting required
will be the ramrod pipes and nose cap, the stocks come inlet
for the late style trigger guard which only needs enlarging
to fit the early style guard. You have a choice of five
styles of ramrod pipes in brass and one style in steel.
Also we offer the Tedd Cash patch box in brass or steel
to compliment our trigger guard and butt plate in brass
or steel.

installed and pinned to save you hours of work.
This is the ultimate kit in graceful styling
and superior parts. No other kit to-day can offer you what
is standard in "The Longrifle" so take a good hard look
before you make the decision, but we are sure that you will
agree that "The Longrifle stands alone at the top of the
list of rifle kits.
