Carved

Kibler’s Longrifles has combined it’s expertise in CNC machining with the company’s background in producing high end custom Longrifles.  The result is a rifle with beautifully designed and executed carving available at an unbelievable price point of $375 add-on

Carved in nearly all possible locations, the designs are such that a harmonious and beautiful rifle results.  A rifle of this quality was previously only available from a high-end custom builder for a significant price tag, and many years-long wait times, but things have now changed.

Stocks for this kit are being produced on new and highly sophisticated CNC equipment.  This will result in a kit that is even easier to assemble as compared to our current offerings.

The kit does not come carved--the photo with the carving is a custom rifle Jim made years ago that was based on the "Woodsrunner" rifle

IN THE WHITE

  • This service is available as an add on to a kit gun order.  This is $525 for this service. You will need to contact the office via 330-551-5844 or info@kiblerslongrifles.com

    A gun provided "in the white" will be completely assembled and functional.  The wood will need sanded and finished.  The metal will also benefit from some cleanup.  This is typically a little light filing on the rough spots followed by a little polishing with abrasive paper.  The metal can be left in this condition or can be blued, browned, aged etc. 

    Your kit will arrive assembled, ready for you to customize and finish.

FINISHED RIFLES

We recommend the work of talented and experienced gunsmith, Chuck Edwards, for those who would like additional finishing work done on their Kibler Rifle.  He can be reached at (573) 421-5098 and his online page is found on Facebook.  He has finished out many Kibler rifles and does fantastic work.  The pricing will vary depending on the work and should be discussed with Chuck.

Woodsrunner w/ lock

This kit is really nice. Wood is amazing, CNC cuts are so accurate, metal to wood fit is great. The lock is so nice. I'm about to start the finishing with iron nitrate and tried and true oil. To all at Kiblers, Thanks for what you do. I will order again this fall the southern mt. rifle. my next winter project. Art Bellerose.

Awesome kit!

I ordered an extra fancy maple, carved, .45 Woodsrunner. First, it comes in a custom wood crate that, short of a truck rolling over it, will protect the rifle in transit. Two additional items that were nice to see were a starter flint and the NMLRA Muzzleloading Guide book included.

I was a complete newbie as far as assembling and finishing any kind of muzzleloading rifle or musket. Just following Kibler's Woodsrunner assembly videos and the Colonial Rifle brass and barrel filing videos was enough to let me finish this kit with virtually no issues. Honestly the toughest part was draw filing the barrel. The patch box door took a lttle fiddling to get right and peening the ram rod tip was tougher than I thought it was going to be. The carved option comes with a mild bit of stock sanding already done. It was suggested you clean out the carvings with a wire brush. I used nylon because hitting it with anything else worried me! As far as thier customer service is concerned, it is top notch. They promptly answered every stupid question before and during the build. Also, I had a mis-drilled brass nose cap they replaced without issue.

I highly recommend this kit and hope to build another in the future. Now if they would only make pistols...

Shipping

Liquid Shipping

Liquids will not ship in the kit box. There are different regulations that apply to the chemicals that we sell and they will need to ship ground, when the kits will ship USPS Priority Mail. Plus, it would really stink if a liquid were to leak on your beautiful new kit!

Order tracking

You will receive tracking information when your item ships. For kits, you will be contacted before shipment and after shipment so there is no need to worry about a kit box shipping when you are out of town. All other packages will ship when available and you will be emailed a tracking link.

Get in touch

If you have questions, feel free to email us at info@kiblerslongrifles.com or give us a call at 330-551-5844. Even if you have to leave a message, we promise to get back with you right away. Bree can answer most questions and she will be sure to ask Jim when needed.
