Day in the Woods

[Swampman]

Took my new/old flintlock hunting today. I had some deer close, but not close enough to tell if they were bucks. I did some plinking & drank a cold IBC rootbeer for lunch. Temp was in the low 60s. Awesome day with God.

She hang fires just a tad, but is very accurate. I need to get some 4F, new style vent liners, and send the lock back to T/C for tweaking.

The new rammer I made worked fine.

Sounds like a very good day to me. :thumbsup:

Seems like an odd decision to make when you were just telling everybody the opposite on 2/15:

"...I could send them back and get the new style for free, but I don't see any reason to abuse a good company and put folks out of work..."

Think you had a fine time out there!

Tell a man form the land of beer (Bavaria) how a root beer tastes?

Confusion is only a state of mind. :rotf:

 

[Swampman]

I don't believe I said anything about sending something back that isn't broken, just to get something free. If it needs a new frizzen or other parts, I'll pay for it.

Now that sounds like an enjoyable day!

I like the picture of your kit. The IBC brings back memories of their Cream Soda while I was attending Purdue. I lived on that stuff. Yum. :thumbsup:

Sounds like a great day to me.

Sounds like a grand time! I hope that you weren't hunting Deer in Florida - that season has passed...

Any day spent in the field is a good day :v

We still have one more weekend up here on the panhandle. We are going small game hunting today.

I was out again today. I missed a squirrel, but I saw this near my stand.

Wow! A genuine Hawken tree! :rotf: :haha:
A fresh rub? When do your deer rut down there? Wish I was still hunting deer...

 

[Swampman]

They rut in the middle of Jan. & again in the middle of Feb.

The gun was much faster today. I guess a through cleaning in the breech area was what it really needed.

Having had several guns with Chamber's locks, I'm not use to having to work at this.
