I am starting to shoot again after 35 years. I used to shoot a black powder shotgun, and a BP revolver, and have the time to enjoy it again. This time have bought a Shiloh Sharps 1863 54cal (Farmingdale) and A Shiloh Sharps 1874 45-70 (Big Timber). I have questions this time; last time I just jumped in. It doesn't seem that many people on Long Island shoot BP.
