Good morning,
Hoping this finds you well and, I'm still learning as I go....I've got the basics: a muzzle loader .32 cal I learned patience, precision, and punching tin cans with my father when I was in grade school over 50 years ago. He also gave me his very abused double-barreled shotgun he claimed to have shot sparrows to feed his two pet hawks when he was a youngster. His older brother and a family friend "borrowed' the side plates to fashion pistols and non-original that fit loosely were reinstalled (see pic), so the best I can hope for might be a shootable wall hanger with a story. My 1st pistol purchase was a new Italian 44 percussion revolver in 1983 that I passed on to a neighbor. I look forward to reading your stories. Have fun and stay safe!!
