From Long Island originally, currently living in the Finger Lakes region. Was not raised around firearms but became a hobbyist/collector as an adult. Don’t currently own any muzzle loaders. Found this forum hunting the classifieds but think I’ll stick around a while.
Have always been fascinated with American History, especially the Revolutionary War. Combining these two interests it’s only natural I’d want a Brown Bess of my own. Have recently been studying the Civil War and added an 1861 Springfield to the wanted list.
Thought about joining a local Revolutionary War reenactment group many years ago before I moved (mostly as an excuse to buy a musket) but never followed through. Sewing is another hobby of mine and always thought it would be cool to make some traditional period clothing.
I enjoy camping want to learn more about hunting and trapping, a couple other skills I missed out on in my upbringing. Thanks for having me!
