Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x24 refurbished and rings from A&A Optics. Looks brand new! Not one mark on it at all!
So, I didn't buy it, but it came home with me.
Replica 1861 Navy that my dad bought in CO when we had a reunion there a few years back. He never fired it and the tag said "unfired". Hmmmm. It's in .44 and most of the ones on GB are .36. I'd like to figure it out, shoot it a bit, and take it to his place and get him shooting it. Came with some Pyrodex powder and cap primers. And some ammo...pretty literally ball ammo. My main question is how to meter the powder out Dad said "Yeah, they said something about that". Okay, off I go. The cylinder has some really cool engraving on it. Ships and whatnot.
So, do we have a "black powder" forum here? I am in the research and learn mode.
