    Black powder

    Hey all,

    I am new to Calguns.

    I started shooting blackpowder at about age 12. My dad makes them. He made me a .45 percussion cap and also a flint lock.

    Cause he's awesome I am showing them off! (And sorry he doesn't sell them).

    Wow! Very good skill set. I cheat and buy the complete Uberti stuff. Haha. Hope to see more of those beauties in the future.

      I have a few prized pieces myself but this are definitely nice weapons you are showing. Nice to see someone else in the black powder field.
