Hi everyone,
Starting to look at getting back into a front stuffer after a number of years away.
After progressing from highly accomplished archer, I had been into the whole BP community....rendez-vous, full garb (not buckskins, though...I looked more like a farmer than a trapper). I even had a full British redcoat (from Brigade of the American Revolution patterns...yes, I know, wrong color
) with a matching 'Bess reproduction. My other ML had been a Lyman Plains Rifle (not the Great Plains) in .45cal cap and ball. That Lyman was a special piece for a typical "Hawken" style rifle...very light (honey brown) finish that nearly matched the brass and a dark knot in the comb. It had a peep /globe sight set-up and was the bane of both the local prairie dog colonies (took lots) and nudist colony (because it was a wee bit louder than the little .22cal plinkers the local kids used all summer )
Well, I'm back and starting to look at a Kibler kit....always wanted a long and I hear Kibler makes a darn fine kit, so we'll just have to see what ends up darkening my door
