Today I sit down with Alison and Tom Hall to talk about their history with muzzleloading, what Traditions is all about, and what they have planned for the future. Tom is a muzzleloading industry veteran, it was great to talk with him about contemporary muzzleloading history and about how the industry has changed since the 1970s.
Alison is the marketing manager for Traditions and brings her own perspective about the sport, its history and how the industry has changed. She shares the story of her first hunt and what it's like working in the muzzleloading industry.

I just got done doing a St Louis Hawkin muzzleloader kit and now I am working on a Kentucky rifle kit and love both of them, and can't wait to get more!!!😊😊❤
I have built three Traditions kits (Kentucky percussion; Kentucky flintlock; Hawken percussion). They all went together easily. I have also contacted Traditions to get a replacement sight for my Hawken, and that experience was superb. I'm a fan.
I have built a 32 cal crockett rifle and 50cal flintlock mountain rifle. Both are great rifles.
Great discussion! Thank you to Traditions for their contribution to keeping traditional muzzleloading alive while also advancing technology. A couple of products that I would love to see are a sidelock trade rifle in .54 cal or above dedicated to hunters. A muzzleloader that I can use on deer, turkey, squirrels, etc.
Also, medium bore side lock muzzleloaders dedicated to the same projectiles used in Traditions .36 and .44 cal percussion revolvers. With round ball or conical, these could be very useful . 😊👍
Awesome interview. It's always good to hear from these companies. I definitely second the demand for smoothbore and Civil War era rifles in general. The 1842 smoothbore is an in-stock rarity. It would be great if they built a traditional sidelock side by side shotgun, either on the hawken or shedhorn chassis.
I’d love it if Traditions made a rifle kit in the style of the late 1700s. I know I’d buy a bunch of them for my kids and grandkids.
Hi Ethan - fascinating interview! Thanks for asking my question, and thanks to these fine folks for answering.
Regarding a potential smoothbore sidelock, I think there’d be space in both the traditional hunting and living history/reenactor markets for something like a Northwest trade gun from an established, value-conscious company like Traditions. The originals in 20 gauge were arguably the most important and versatile firearms on the frontier.
There are India-made replicas out there, but if Traditions sold a trade gun with a Spanish barrel, either finished or as a kit, I'd buy one a heartbeat.
I hope they bring back their Enfield kits
I hope they really pay attention to the smoothbore questions. It might be their best growth option for traditional.
Me too. Huge potential in my opinion.
Bring back the pirate pistol
Please!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Just a thought but the sites on the Hawkins, not liking them being plastic!!! Any chance of getting them in metal?
Whats your opinion of the traditions mountain rifle?
Been telling them for years they need a 54 or 58cal round ball shooter
That's a niche crowd.
I recently acquired a Traditions Blunderbus and couldn't be more happy , IT'S a Flintlock, I have a couple other Flintlocks ❤
