Friends, our 2nd Amendment rights are always under attack and the NRA has been a constant for decades in helping fight that fight.
We have partnered with the NRA to offer you a discount on membership and Muzzleloading Forum gets a small percentage too of each membership, so you are supporting both the NRA and us.
Flint Wallet by my hand.
I used to just keep a few flints loose in my hunting pouch, until I cut the hammered shucks out of myself while rooting around for something… so being somewhat prudent, I made a flint wallet. I liked it so much I made one for my son. He liked it so much I decided to...

Hello everyone!
I have been shooting muzzle loaders for just over 40 years. It didn't take much effort on my part to get my son into the obsessive hobby either. Together, we do some F&I reenacting. Live in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia.
