Hi! I recently got into BP shooting. History, especially our founding has always intrigued me. My daughter (8 yrs old) is big into history mainly between 1700s-1800s. Thought what a great way to help teach some our heritage. Seeing as how we live in an area that is rich with historical sites and such. Researched for months on how it works pertaining to the gun so I didn't blow my arms off. I bought a Lyman Trade Rifle. Whilst it isn't "traditional" from what I've come to learn, it was a starter rifle. I've been shooting for about a month and few weeks now and WOW am I hooked. I hope to eventually purchase a nice longrifle or a Leman rifle.
I've come across this site so many times in my research and thought it was time to sign up. I've learned so much that I've been able to pass on to my daughter some of the knowledge and to others at our local gun range. It seems I've always managed to form a crowd of onlookers. Anyways, I've lurked long enough that it's time to be courteous and say hi. So thank you guys thus far for the knowledge you've bestowed.
