Welcome from Ab !
I had thought Winters closed down? I lived near there (Waterford) years ago. Glad to hear Winters is still there. Atco Sports, Paradise Sports, and the one in the Berlin Farmers Market were all regular stops for me. And the 2 up 206 North, forget the names. Harrys Army Navy maybe? Had the orange submarine outside the building.In case you ever need a true, old school gunsmith that understands muzzle loaders, Joe Winters on Rt. 30 White Horse Pike in Berlin has a shop. Winters Specialties. Grew up with a gunsmith dad, used to shoot N-NSA, works on modern and old guns.
I haven't been there in over a year, I'm gonna google him now, he has a site.I had thought Winters closed down? I lived near there (Waterford) years ago. Glad to hear Winters is still there.

Just accessed his site; he's still there, apparently! They don't make 'em like that anymore! He has a USMC Jeep from the '50's he restored; did engine work, etc., so he's pretty handy at stuff.I haven't been there in over a year, I'm gonna google him now, he has a site.
I assume it was his dad that tuned up and repaired my 740 woods master unmentionable.Just accessed his site; he's still there, apparently! They don't make 'em like that anymore! He has a USMC Jeep from the '50's he restored; did engine work, etc., so he's pretty handy at stuff.
Probably close to 20 years ago when we moved. Had to get used to the smaller deer there, but I probably killed enough to fill a box car. I'm going to take a drive around next time I'm there visiting my MIL.I haven't been there in over a year, I'm gonna google him now, he has a site.
Hello from another NJ new member. I just joined also and was at Kempton Gunmakers Fair last weekend. Like you I started muzzleloading a while back but had a hiatus until recently.Hello all. Just signed up. Last time I was active as a muzzleloader was close to 40 years ago. I lived in northern NJ, where I fly fished for trout, and hunted whiteails and small game. The deer hunting was exclusively with BP. The net wasn't active then, but I had a .50 cal Jonathon Browning Mountain Rifle, inspired by watching Redford in my teens use a Hawken at the movies, and a book by Sam Fadala to guide me. I later picked up a .32 flinter from Dixons and a .36 caplock from Cabelas for squirrel hunting and plinking but only shot each at the range a few times.
I relocated after college in the early 80s to the southern Jersey coast, where I became an avid waterfower (including a decoy carver) and saltwater fisherman. Fast-forward to present, on the eve of my retirement, and I'm hungry for the fishing and hunting of my youth. I may even get a fowling piece to hunt ducks with. I was at the gun fair in Kempton, PA this past weekend (surprised it wasn't at Dixons anymore!) and met some nice folks, got a few new supplies and a hefty dose of inspiration. I imagine I'll have a few questions as I get back into gear and look forward to making some new friends here.
