Hello! I am totally new to this forum and to ML in general. I have found a local mentor who has been showing me the ropes. I have recently purchased a T/C Renegade .54. Infact, its still being shipped. I am totally hooked on ML and the traditional way of living.
I have always had a fascination with the Mountain Man trapper, how he lived, what he did, etc. I live near Lewiston, ID and Clarkston, WA where Lewis and Clark came through. Not that that means anything to me other than history, but its pretty cool and fascinates me. I want to get into going to and participating in rendezvous and reenactments. I like the traditional way with modern things mixed in. Like my rifle, percussion cap, not flint. I have yet to shoot a flint. But its still traditional (sorta) and fun. I like to cast my own roundballs but I think I would enjoy it better using the ladle and single mold over the campfire.
I belong to other forums on the net such as DC.com and Modern Muzzleloader. I hope to learn a great deal more on the traditional way from here and hopefully make some good friends along the way. Thanks all.
