Hi from Western PA

[redhorse1955]

Found the site the other day while poking around for BP links.
Started shooting BP about 15 years ago but only pursued it for about 5 years... Still have a small collection. Planning on going Goose hunting with my Pendersoli 10Ga sxs on Sept. 1st.
I don't do any historical stuff [yet] but just have fun shooting and hunting with my BP as well as modern guns [no traditional clothing... just use whatever I have]. I have a 50cal. Hawkin from CVA that I built years ago [it was my first build other than a 45cal Philadelphia Derranger]. Neither is a work of art. Besides I was to excited to get to shoot them rather then spend the time needed to make them 'pretty'. I have a few other misc. pieces that I use for target shooting.
I'm no expert and am looking forward to gaining a lot from those of you who are. :master:
Mostly I just like to get out and enjoy the hunt and the BP smoke.

Welcome,

I've got a cousin in Ambridge, PA, but he's a non-hunter nor shooter so we'll discuss him no more.

Tear off a hunk o' Snake-Eye 1K's coffee and sit a spell. Zonie used to make a good brew, but it kept eatin through the brew pot and dousin the coals.

Not sure of the campground but Tidiout is just north of Tionesta - along the historic Allegheny River.
