Texas here
« on: December 18, 2014, 03:20:34 AM »
Howdy everyone,

I'm glad I was accepted into this forum. I bought my first BP gun (TC Hawken) when I was 15.  35 years later I still haven't kicked the habit.  At work I have to carry guns made of black plastic and steel.  They are simply tools of the trade.  However, when I am off work and in the field I will be found with guns that were designed in the 19th century.  BP firearms just seem to have "soul."

I like hunting, photography, history and college football.  That is me in a nutshell.

Grab a chair, get yourself some coffee and get comfortable.  When you feel up to it, chime in.  Good that you like to take pictures.  Some of the guys don't do words well, so if you can post pictures, it helps them.
