hello from South Carolina
« on: January 15, 2014, 05:14:09 PM »
Hey thanks to captainKirk's invite I found this forum. My names Dave from SC. Retired Marine, retired law enforcement, full time grandpa.
I have in my BP stable, 1851 army, 1851 snub nose, four 1858 Remingtons, two .45 hawkens, and two .50 Hawkens.
Glad to be here, already found some good reading.

My 4 BP Rifles, 2 are Flint Locks and 2 are Cap locks. One is a Thompson, one is a CVA, one is a Sears (Miroku) and one is a kit gun. All were bought used.





4, 1858 Remingtons. 1, 1851 Colt 1, 1851 Snubbie.

Waiting for EMF to get their shipment in so I can get a 1860 Snubbie as well.
