Hello from Kansas

[Defilade]

I am starting to get back into muzzleloader and hopefully soon will purchase my first flintlock rifle. So I here to learn from others and increase my knowledge a little.

I have shot muzzleloader in the past, but they were mainly cap and ball pistols. My interest was really only the post civil war years up to the mid 1870’s.

however I have been reading more and more about the French and Indian war and the American revolution.

I have my fathers CVA Hawken rifle that he built in the late 1970’s or early 1980’s, so I took it out the other day and shot it a little. Now I want. Flintlock even more. Haha.

Welcome Defilade from another Kansan. I live in the Manhattan area and have been shooting muzzleloaders for many years, but took a hiatus in the late 1980s until getting back into it a bit about twenty years ago. I really enjoy them all, both flinters and cappers.
