Hello all. I hope that I will be an asset to the forum. I will try. While I actually shoot more modern firearms than muzzleloaders, I do own a goodly number of the latter, and find descussions about muzzleloaders and their associated items and their time in history interesting. I happen to like T/C caplock guns and have collected a number of them from 32 caliber to 12 gauge. I also own other brands, but prefer the T/C's. I've always had good service from them and T/C Arms. A number of them still remain unfired and I have mixed emotions about pulling the trigger on them. Again, "hello" and when it comes time to post to the forum I hope that I do so with intelligence and with something that will be of intrest. Thanks, Oscar/NC
