Hi from NH
« on: January 22, 2014, 12:01:35 PM »
Got an invite to join sooo I did. Been shooting caplock rifles for some time now and that lead to single shot percussion pistols and derringers and soon after cap and ball revolvers. Have a degree in history so the old style guns just seemed natural. Doesn't hurt that they are relatively inexpensive compared to new fangled guns which I have too. I have found the Colts to be the easiest to work on and they are just plain good looking guns. I have steel and brass framed guns and enjoy shooting all of them. I hunt, fish, garden and try to get outside when ever circumstances allow. I work at a local high school in special education so trigger time or time in the great outdoors is greatly appreciated on the weekends. Looking forward to discussing my favorite hobby here and exchanging tips and tricks with other cap and ball shooters.

Welcome, glad to meet you.
History was one of my favorite classes in school.
I probably would have learned something if I'd stayed awake.
(it was my favorite because the teacher didn't care if we took a nap...)

Grab a seat, get yourself some coffee and get comfortable.  When you feel froggie, jump in a conversation.
