Fun weekend camping with Great Friends!
Lots of laughs, lots of good food and a lot of smoke & fire!

The fellow in green check shirt does a lot of pistol shooting. Years ago before his eyes got old he regularly won matches with a flintlock pistol at the NMLRA shoot in Friendship, IN. From the media portrayals of recent events I would not say law enforcement are very well trained at marksmanship. Most flintlock shooters try to get it done in one shot.Thanks. I had not seen that. I had been told that a left-handed fusil had been found, but no source was provided for me.
Those pistol shooters display poor form. Their stance is wrong. A heavy recoiling handgun would stagger them. Try standing like them, feet side by side, and fire a modern .44 or even a .357. You would stagger backwards. The guy in the green checkered hunting shirt has the stance about right. Curious, though, as he seems to be firing the handgun right-handed where-as in another photo he is shooting a rifle left-handed. But, of course as a police handgun and shotgun instructor I taught my people to use either hand.
Okay....I'll fall for it. Appears you are in a treestand. What's the story?
Looks like fun. Which of these fine gentlemen could "edumacate" me a bit on muzzleloading shotguns? Basically, I know what I'm going to need to buy, but just don't know where to find the stuff at. I picked up a percussion side-by-side earlier this year at an auction in Knoxville and want to get everything set and a load developed before 2023 spring turkey season begins.Fun weekend camping with Great Friends!

What did you buy? Was it an old original or of modern manufacture...any choke? If it's old verify the gauge as you may think it's a 12 but it's really a 13. Below are some links that might be of interest to you.Looks like fun. Which of these fine gentlemen could "edumacate" me a bit of muzzleloading shotguns?
