Hello all, just wanted to stop by the bar and say hello before I go wandering through the clubhouse.
I have very limited experience in mussys so since I just bought one I thought I would educate myself a little, So, here I am.
I have ben around firearms my entire life. My father held a FFL all the way back into the 60's and I have held my own FFL for over 5 years. That being said we, dad and I, have only played around with muzzys. We did a little small game hunting with a pair of 69 cal flintlocks back in the 70's, we also built quite a few of those kits around the same time. However, like the two BP's that I owned [before today] they have all ben pretty much walhangers. Well today a CVA Optima walked into the shop and for some reason it spoke to me. Take me home. So I did.{ I wish I had listened to another muzzle loader that talked to me weeks ago and brought that Savage model 10 home. STUPID ME let it get away} Now I really hope I find the time to get out and shoot this, instead of letting it sit around with the rest of the collection.
So, long story short . . . New guy from Iowa saying hello. Hahahahaha
