    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    That looks like nothing but pure fun! All I've done ML-wise lately is move the Kentucky pistol stock to a different vise (it's perched/impaled on a shim in the trigger mortise) so the new BLO finish can continue curing. Eventually, I'll wax & reassemble it.

    Sometimes the "What have I got to lose?" attitude comems into play! If you hated it then, and hate it now, then the worst possibility is that you will hate it painted... which is consistent, at least. :) And you could always paint it again, let it try on a new outfit.
