Got to the range today. Shotgun Dave and I smoked the others with some proper Black Powder
drifting into their smokeless area down wind .They were alerted first ( L@.
The 1860 Civilian worked very well along with a 36 Navy Civilian first outing.
No target or crono or high and low report, just some good old make smoke and sound , plinking.
Dave got to try his new 72 and seemed pleased I guess ,at least he had a grin on his face.
Three hours went by to soon. ::)

My civilian 60 has brass BS and GF and I am going to sonic clean them so the brass tarnish's. I very much like tarnished brass ... I believe this makes them look older and used but cared for ... warm if you will.
