Do not feel bad about not being fluent in English. We have a lot of Americans who can't speak or write it correctly.

Welcome from Texas!
We visited Germany twice, including the 2019 Christmas markets in Kaiserslautern, Garmisch, Frankfurt, Trier, and a few other cities. We love glühwein, even in the rain! Not to mention schnitzel, pretzels, and bier! Your country is beautiful, and the people are wunderbar!

Kaiserslautern Christmas Market.

Happy Texans in K-town.

 

[Brazos John]

I bought my hat and scarf there, too!

Wie gehts.
My father was from Augsburg.
Probably the reason I struggle in England!
I miss visiting Bayern.

Welcome to the forum. There is no problem with your English. Lovely pistols, I would like to know what powder charge you have been using and how accurate you have found the pistols to be. I don't know where you are located but I lived in Sembach (Close to Kaiserslautern) as a young boy in the 1950's. Germany is such a beautiful country.

[Britsmoothy]

That is very similar to some of mine made by Johannes Mond of Augsburg, circa 1850. Beautiful!

Also, English is my third language! We are happy to have another member here with a different viewpoint!
