  • In all of the years I've been shooting, flintlock shooters are some of the nicest folks you'd ever want to meet. Usually, very knowlegable of their firearm history, a bit dorky sometimes, and often times....ummmm....fat. Ok, like me too ;-)

  • i've always loved flinters but i dont have a real one
