    picked up some revolvers

    Got neighbor like that. I think he likes setting up a job more then he like finishing it. Gets the car up on Jack stands, pulls all the parts off, starts cleaning and spray painting everything on the car he's not replacing them the car sits like that for a month or two. Drives out HOA crazy.

    Show N Tell your first MLer rifle

    My first muzzleloader was an unmentionable so, I won't! So, my first "traditional" muzzleloader was an 1862 Bridesberg.58 civil war rifle I restored from a barn find. I posted the build on this forum but if you didn't see it and would like to read it.... Thread '1861 Bridesberg Resurrection'...

    How heavy is too heavy?

    What a beast. I like a heavy gun to. I don't hunt anymore so the furthest I'd have to carry it would be the truck to the bench at the range.

    Flintlock pistol holster

    Flintlock pistol holster

    That's just the form it naturally took. In my research I did find a couple original examples of flintlock holsters but they were actually referred to as pistol buckets. Sort of a cup shaped out of leather and lined with something soft. These are what I found on line.
