Two Flints,
Just acquired a Taylor's 56-50 carbine last week here in Birmingham, so please sign me up to join your Spencer Shooting Society. We look forward to learning more about this gun and naturally using it in the field.

Don't own a Spencer yet, but hope to do so before next spring.

Thought I'd join the forum & learn from those who have experience, and hence wisdom, with Spencers.

Bought an Armi Sport in .45 Schofield from Taylors about two years ago. Have used it in several reenactments and have live fired a bunch of rounds. I would like to join.

I own a early Spencer (First of the Carbines received by the Govt in Oct. 63) and it was converted to 50 cal.  I shoot it all the time in N-SSA events.  I would love to see if I can find more information about this Spencer.  Is there any place I can have the s/n traced to see if I can be connected to any unit from either the Civil War or the Indian Wars.  I am also interested in know what the rest of you who shoot the 50 cal cartridge use to load your rounds?  I am thinking of working up a longer range cartridge that would reach out 100yd-200 yds (Maybe using Swiss Powder)..  Any suggestiong would be welcomed

New Guy here,
Have an old 56-56 that was used for blanks in the 70's. Would like to purchase some brass / bullets and try it for accuracy.
Any shooters want to sell a few brass and hanfull of bullets? Would like to try her before jumping in to far. Just figured out how
to get a 50-70 to shoot! Not a blackpowder guy,so this is new to me. Any help appreciated.
