Hello, all! eace:

I've been lurking on this site for a awhile, finally decided to take the plunge. A little primer on myself: I live in Ontario, Canada and have been an avid hunter/shooter for about 25 years. Was bitten by the blackpowder bug several years ago, mostly for hunting and informal target shooting. I even got the opportunity to work as an armourer on a movie set a while back ( "The Pathfinder" starring Kevin Dillon, James Woolvitz and Graeme Greene) that was a tremendous experience, especially working with the actors and re-enactors on the set. (I've never had to load so many darn flintlocks in my life!) Hoping to share some of my limited experiences with you all and learn from this vast pool of experience!

Thanks a bunch for the hospitality!

Say, where did you get all of the info for the movie? I've been looking to snag a copy of it for ages, but could never find it. (I never did see the finished version). Also wanted to see how my "acting debut" went. (This consisted of the camera standing behind me as I shot a charging Indian with my Brown Bess. Didn't have me in the shot, just the gun. That's the extent of my acting ability!)

If you could let me know where I could get a copy of this, would appreciate the info!

Thanks again :thumbsup:
