Hey All!
First of all, Happy New Year!
Well, the Christmas gift of the CVA Hawken was a total hit with my dad! Don't you love it when you totally surprise someone and see that look of joy on their face. :grin:
Anyhow, I had spoken off and on with John Gorman here in my neck of the woods (NMLRA Rep) so I brought my dad by to get his brain filled with flintlock knowledge and I think we're going to head out this weekend and shoot.
I too must admit, that with all the research I did on this forum, picking John's brain, as well as Don's at the Possible Shop (thanks Don), I've gotten the bug... :surrender:
So yes, I've placed an order for one of my own. :thumbsup:
I'm looking forward to shooting again, this time with a much more interesting firearm. I also just finished mixing up a batch of Moose Milk so we can keep our muzzles clean while shooting (we have wonderlubed patches right now so later I may try the Moose Snot).
Anyhow, thanks to those as well on the forum that have answered my questions and led me in the right direction! :bow:
