    hey from FISHERS INDIANA

    Thank you for your service and welcome from South Carolina. Even though some will say it’s ok to use non black powder don’t believe it. There are many reasons but I’m telling you black powder is the best... these guns were made for BP and not fake BP. Have fun with your new smoke pole ! 🤗🇺🇸❤️

    Making a Shooting Bag: Questions

    Yea some bags are very small. I guess it all depends on what you need to carry. I have three rifles and two cap and ball pistols, and am getting to put together a couple of .50 cal pistol kits. I’ll have at least one parts bag for each.

    Making a Shooting Bag: Questions

    I do this stuff for a living so here’s my two cents... first I don’t see a middle spacing piece. That would give you more room. And it is rasier to make if you have one. Now, everything is sewn inside out, this also makes it easier. Hold on I’m going to try and put some pics on here. If you...
