Hello all,
I just found this site. I am from Canada. I like all types of firearms, not just muzzleloaders. As far as muzzleloaders go, I have a TC Hawken 45 cal, and a Pietta 1858 New Army cap & ball. Some time in the future, I would like to build a rifle completely from scratch, rather than from a kit.

Pyro: A Big Welcome To The Camp ! ! I'm glad you found us. You'll fine all kinds of information here, even how the best way to start building your Muzzleloader from scatch. I too like all kinds of firearms. I also have a T/C 50cal fintlock Hawkens and a T/C 54cal percussion Hawkens. I
really enjoy shooting my blackpowder rifles. I'm not ready to do a rifle from scatch, but I would like to do a kit first. To help you in your search, check these two sites: www.dixiegunworks.com and www.trackofthewolf.com They can help with all kinds of parts, and anything that you would need with muzzleloading. Anyway, welcome to the camp. Take care, Mtn-Man2u (Steve)

Pyro - Welcome, young man. I like how you introduced yourself. I always respect a fella who cherishes firearms, especially the grand old dames of days gone by. Heck by the sounds of it, yer almost one of "U.S." Annawho tell what part of CA you hail from. I'm sittin jus a few miles from the river maself and actually lived for a while in Upper Canada.

Nuther welcome, sse :winking:
