Yes, this forum is for people who are interested in the old "Traditional", side lock, mule ear and underhammer guns and reenacting times before 1865.
I suggest that people read the Forum Rules when they join us. Here is a link to them:
https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/threads/forum-rules.108881/
Starting at the top of the forum rules we have:
1: The focus of this site is "Traditional Muzzleloading"; The history of muzzleloading weapons and battles, up to and including the American Civil War. (From the inception of firearms through 1865)
Then, we have rule 7 which says,
7:
We do not discuss modern (in-line) muzzleloading firearms.
Early historic breech loading guns that do not use primed metallic or semi-metallic cartridges and meet the requirements of rule #1 are permitted for discussion.
See special rules at the bottom for posts about breech loading firearms.
Then we have,
9: We do not discuss copper and/or jacketed, plastic/polymer tipped bullets, sabots, power belts, or other 'plastic-wrapped' bullets. Smoothbores using plastic wads and steel shot are an exception to this rule.
If the new type of muzzle loading guns is all a person is interested in I suggest they will find the place at,
https://www.modernmuzzleloader.com/
That is a forum for modern muzzleloaders. It's owner also owns this site.
