Hello from Sweden

[Stanley72]

Hi everyone!
My name is Fredrik, 37 years old, livin in Sweden. I´m just starting out with Blackpowder shooting. I havent fired a single shot yet, but i am a proud owner of a swedish mod. 1815-46 smoothbore percussion lock musket. I have contacted a local club and i start with them in august after vacations and such. Meanwhile i will get the gun checked by a gunsmith. It seems to be in very good condition but i wouldnt want any nasty surpises.
Just wanted so say hello to you all!
/Fredrik
