Yes I will be there.
Lots of guns ,gear , books , and crafts.
I will be there both days.
The gun club I belong to Skagit Muzzleloaders will have a table and I'll be at the table off and on.

By all means come on down and we'll talk black powder... Looking forward to seeing you there!

Too bad it's so far up there.

 

[Andy54Hawken]

It can be a far piece to drive .
That said , there are many , many tables and outfits that show up.
Many chances to see different types of guns and gear.

If anyone here has thought about Black Powder but not sure what to get ... I'd be happy to help make sure you get a good gun and outfit while I am there ....

Wish they would open up their RV lot for this show, otherwise I would be there in a heart beat. For some reason the fairgrounds doesn't think anybody RV's before 1 April.

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Just putting in another plug for this show.
It is a lot of fun for the whole family.
I will be there both days* .... So shoot me a PM if you want to meet up.
Always happy to help get someone started off right in muzzle loading.

( *course some folks might see that as reason to stay away! )

Dang I was hoping it was more towards the end of the month. I am still hoping to go but scheduling might be an issue.

 

[Libertas7]

Does anyone want to share any pics they might have took?

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Sorry no pictures as of yet....
There will be be some pictures of a Springfield 1842 Musket with a lock date of 1845 and a issue date of 1851 in the near future....

Is it yours? Can't wait to see it.

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Why yes it is....
Faded , but nice cartouches , beautiful crisp lock ... nice clean bore... Sound wood stock.
After a good once over and load testing , it should be a great shooter.
