Welcome to the Uncle Sasquatch Channel. Wondering how that name came to be? Well, I am a bit 'barber shy' and my nephew gave me the name several years ago. This effort is dedicated in the memory of Jamie Dale Newton.
Hopefully, the videos on this channel will be educational as well as entertaining. I am an NRA certified pistol instructor as well as an NRA certified range safety officer and I work at a gun store in my community.
Thanks for perusing my channel. Keep yer powder try and mind yer top knot, pilgrim!

Interested to see where you go with that knife handle on the patch knife. God bless you buddy.
I went with maple scales on it. Thanks for watching.
Found your channel this morning thanks to spirit of the outdoors, and subscribed, I've went through your play list from the beginning and have watched 28 videos so far, you have a great channel, thanks for sharing.
Welcome to the channel. I'm glad you enjoy the videos. Thanks for watching!
Hope you can continue with your channel. You bring up interesting content to all, new and old.
I will as long as they let me. I appreciate it and thanks for watching.
You have an interest in the history of these mountain rifles and have mentioned books on the subject, what book would you suggest I would like to read more about the styles of mountain rifles. I have two original rifles from the Ozark region which seem to be influenced by Mountain rifles and Hawken rifles. Both have blacksmith made barrels. I suspect the maker used what he had on hand, not caring about a "school."
Here is a link to a thread that suggests some good books on the subject. Thanks for watching. americanlongrifles.org/forum/index.php?topic=74513.0
What grade of Maple is this? Looks very nice by the way.
It is extra fancy. It is one of their "B" grade stocks that they discount. It had some minor flaws on the side plate side because the stock blank was just a bit thin. It was nothing that couldn't be fixed easily. Thanks for watching.
BEST SIDE BY SIDE EVER
Yessir! Great gun. Thanks for watching.
Great looking knives hope you get feeling better!
Thanks! Appreciate you watching.
dualist is one of my favorite channels. he does mostly black powder and to me he is a standup guy.
Yessir he has some good videos on blackpowder. Thanks for watching.
Sweet knives
Thanks!
Those are some beautiful knives
Thanks! I appreciate you watching.
Makes me wonder why they would do this. Are they (who ever they are)worried that they have no control. What about the 2nd amendment. Watch out Jimmy. They'll be after the knives next. By the way, nice builds. Good job. Take care
The operative word is control. Yeah I figure it's just a matter of time before sharp sticks will be on their no-no list. Thanks for watching.
Hay uncle Sasquatch. The slim patch knife is nice . It's definitely a trying time with all the evil working against our freedoms. Hope pray 🙏 you feel better and you get some 🌧️. Hay join us this evening on mikes channel ✝️👍🇺🇸🙏✝️
Yeah the slim one turned out pretty good. I pop in on those videos but I rarely comment. Thanks for watching.
I do watch him as well. Soon, they will stop any 2A subjects.
Seems they are working in that direction. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Jimmy for the shout out
Glad to do it. Thanks for watching.
Howdy Unc. That news about Dualist's channel is just outrageous! It's bad enough with Hickok, since he shows all kinds of "scary" things on his channel, but these geniuses are cracking down on items that even somebody with a felon-iee can purchase through the US mail! There needs to be some Oversight on these draconian rules that change at the whim of whomever is sittin in the cat bird's seat at that particular time.... but if you're a dude who wants to teach "miners" (coal miners, YT) how TRANSMISSIONS can change your gears, then you are pushed to the forefront of the recommended list..... On the brighter side, that maple looks so good! Take it real easy, Unc
Well said! The maple turned out good. Thanks for watching.
It’s disagreeably hot and dry here too. You made up some nice looking knives. Fall is coming soon.
Thanks! In late August here, the mornings are cool even if the day is hot. Appreciate you watching.
Always good to learn about history!!! Thank you Sir!!
You're welcome and thanks for watching.
Hey from Plum Valley. I have one like it, .32 Flint. Is using a .32 with extra powder and balls where we get the phrase "Loaded for Bear"?
I had never thought about the origins of that saying. You could be right. Thanks for watching.
Good one.
Thank you for watching.
Cappers wont fit inside the cap space on the cylinder with the pietta.
Thanks for that tip. Appreciate you watching.
Bought one at a pawn shop in maryville for 90.00 in 44cal
That was a good find. Thanks for watching.
great gun jimmy thanks a lot buddy
I appreciate it. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Jimmy that is very nice gun
The builder did a great job making it look aged. Thanks for watching.
Traditional or not it's a great looking rifle in a very practical caliber.
It looks like an old original rifle. The builder did a great job of aging it. And the dimensions of the rifle were taken off an original mountain rifle. Thanks for watching.
@@UncleSasquatchOutdoors the builder did a fantastic job. I'd carry that anywhere.
@@Nick-wn1xw Thanks!
Never to early to start preparing. Thanks for posting Sir.
That is true and it never hurts to re-check your preparation again before season starts to make sure nothing was forgotten. Thanks for watching.
Always good to see you and Jake. You said something that brought up memories of an old saying. I haven't heard in a while, Lock Stock and Barrel. Just a plane rifle, a tool in the box. It's been very dry here in Northern Kentucky. I haven't shot for a few weeks with the risks of fire. That's being responsible.
I've heard that saying all my life. We haven't much more than a sprinkle of rain or two in two months. And nothing but hot weather for the early part of next week. Thanks for watching.
The "Hog Rifle" was the basic farmers or settlers gun. He used it to do all of the chores a rifle might be called on to do around the farm. From slaughtering hogs to keeping varmits out of the henhouse to bagging small game. By the time the country was mostly settled the really big game like bison, elk and bear were long gone. Calibers shrank from 69 smoothbore or 54 rifles to mostly 45 caliber and under rifles. The
They also began to be a mix of Flintlocks and percussion rifles.
Thanks for watching.
I have a 54 cal built by H.D. Dwight in Belchertown Mass 1847 sweet gun so they must of had a few larger cal
I appreciate you watching.
A worksman’s rifle suits me fine. Them southroner’s pieces sure have a charm. God bless.
To me there is just something artistic about the simplicity. Thanks for watching.
We had 34 and 36 cal here in West Virginia
Those were common calibers in most of the Appalachia region. Thanks for watching.
Common men using the resources that they had on hand to build the tools necessary to put food on the table for their family. Trading and bartering was a way of common way of doing business. Today, so many of these firearms are considered relics of the past. A way of life that was hard at times, but so rich in ways that we really can’t understand today. Thanks to Uncle Sasquatch for keeping this history alive through his video content. God bless you and yours. - Tennessee Smoky
All that you said is so true. They were poor and didn't even know it. Thanks for your support and for watching the videos.
That's why they called it cash poor, as their lives in general weren't poor in all aspects!!!@@UncleSasquatchOutdoors
@@Wildwestwrangler Well said.
Like you, the plain guns,are more my style, they are tools, not decorations
The simplicity and utility of those rifles were an art form to me. One of the well none builders, Mike Miller, said in an interview that plain guns were harder to make. There's nothing there to take your eyes away from the mistakes made in building. Thanks for watching.
Lot more small game eaten than large game in those days too
Yessir. There's a lot of deer in the coves and valleys in that region but the deer aren't as plentiful in the steeper more rugged areas. Thanks for watching.
Yes sir nothing fancy for the most part . Had to be affordable ,accurate and durable and dependable
Yessir! Exactly right. Thanks for watching.
I recently purchased a Hatfield 50 caliber long rifle made like the rifle you show in the video. It is in beautiful condition and has an excellent bore. Are you familiar with the Hatfield?
Yes. A friend I worked with had one. Thanks for watching.
The Hatfield rifle company was a family business making semi-custom long-rifles. They were in business for about ten years. This was about 20 years ago. They made rifles out of best quality parts. That rifle should serve you well.
The early American BP muskets and rifles had various bores anything from .32 to the larger bores in.01 increments. That early Colonial period I find fascinating as well Uncle. Thank you for sharing and God Bless you sir.
It is an interesting period in our history. You are right about the bore diameters. I have read about .38 or .48 caliber rifles. Thank you for watching.
Man, i love the simple Southern mountain rifle. I have seen a southern rifle all iron mounted 54 cal in a video at the museum of the fur trade.... i think that would be the bees' knees
That would be a nice 'un for sure! Thanks for watching.
I joked one on a side of a mountain I know why they had a curved but to dig in to climb up the mountain side
Yessir! Those ol' mountains are steeper than a mule's face. Thanks for watching.
I have seen several biack bears carrying .50 cal. rifles .
Thanks for watching.
I'll be watching! It's not just what you have mentioned. My channel has drastically dropped on views and subscribers. I am not sure what is going on and what we need to do to fix it. Take care, Uncle! Keep up the good work and the good fight.
Now that I don't understand. There is nothing in your videos that is anything but three sweet boys being taken good care of and enjoying a good life. It could just be a seasonal thing because of people being out and about more during the summer. I know I'll be watching! Thank you for watching my channel.
