I just love the look of that Fusil you have…it always catches my eye.

I need to make a trek to Tennessee and go hunting with you for a weekend…just to see that gun in action.

 

[user 49399]

Thanks. It’s fun to shoot too.

Here’s my Fusil de Chase

Nice light weight gun. So much fun to take into the field hunting. My dad and I ordered on the same day…so when they arrived….TWINS. I cannot tell them apart.

My American Fowler

The Fowler is a heavier gun than the Fusil, but it shoots PRBs into an 8” pie plate at 85 yrds…so yeah, heavy is relative

What a line up of fine craftsmanship !

Beautiful.

Mine's not a lightweight exactly as it's a bit more "musket" than fowling piece.

Yeah, this thread is getting impressive

Here’s my very first flintlock

My Brown Bess Carbine was built from a kit. With this gun, I’ve taken 2 deer, many geese and countless small game & upland game

This gun taught me how to shoot and care for a flintlock in the field. I’ll never sell this gun, she’s my pudgy girl.
