    They're good people, indeed. I am looking forward to spending many more days up there, until they tell me to stay away!

    Unfortunate Experience

    I meant to show up, stay 30 minutes just watching, then quietly leave. I was there for four and a half hours, and it was hard to leave...

    Unfortunate Experience

    At the advice of someone here on my earlier post, I recently contacted the Arkansas Muzzle Loaders Association, based in Hattieville. Received several very inviting and welcoming emails in return, and was induced, against my will, to go out to their range. Everyone there was EXTREMELY...

    Conway, AR

    Howdy, all. Chris, from Conway, Arkansas. I am a firearms enthusiast, but only started thinking about flintlocks very seriously recently, as I've been reading about early American history. I think that the only time I've ever seen one, really, was in middle school--one of our teachers did a...
