[QUOTE="Rancocas, post: 5341150, member: 2871"] I'm sorry that we didn't connect, Wobbleshot. I was vaguely aware of a couple talking with Hess while I was working out the details of my purchase, but I didn't pay any attention to them. So, here you go; on top is the rifle I bought at the show from Bill Smith. On the bottom is my own homemade percussion rifle. I made it back in 1998 and it has accounted for many deer since then. Both are .50. Both have 42 inch barrels, but mine is straight whereas the flintlock has a swamped barrel. My shot bag I also made myself sometime back in the '90's. The toggle holding the flap closed I made from the tip of a deer antler. It has served me well for 25 years or more. My powder measure on the bag I made from a deer femur bone. My powderhorn is one that I purchased from Ron Hess at last year's show. Prior to this one I had been using a horn of my own making. And, there is my current loading block with 5 patched balls ready for action. [ATTACH type="full"]135365[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
