Hello, my name is Aaron Newcomer. I am a writer, photographer and researcher. This website primarily details my research and photographs related to the Lefaucheux pinfire system; pinfire guns, pinfire cartridges and other early firearms. Please take a look around and learn about the role they played in shaping modern guns and ammo.
Read more about me and where my work has been published.
The Pinfire Page was a recurring column I had in each issue of the bimonthly publication, The International Ammunition Journal. This compilation book combines together the first 5 years of my column, showcasing my research, images and other documents related to the pinfire system which was the first major breakthrough in modern ammunition.
