I am from PA but live in VA. I am in the U.S. Navy but do not have much time to shoot(underway). I got into muzzleloading looking at cabela's catalogs. I have a T/c Hawken kit I built at 16 and A pedersoli .32 frontier. I am heading to shore duty and looking to build a Jim Chambers smooth rifle this fall. I am hoping someone could head me in the right direction on what tools I will need to build this gun. I would like to get the tools together before I buy the kit.

Ahoy! I was AirWing aboard the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, CVN 69, back in 1982. I reported to NAS Cecil Field with my duffle bag over my shoulder and a .50 cal. Hawken in hand. There was a Jarhead Gunney Sgt. that checked my rifle into the armory, and in a round about way he let it be known that he sure would like to try it out, so that established access to the range anytime I wanted.

You'll enjoy this site. Lot's of good info here. :grey:
