Frank Barker Bags

I am not familiar with Frank Barker's work but there are two very nice looking hunting pouches by him over on the CLA site.  I would enjoy seeing more of his work.

A couple of guys who frequent ALR here were looking for nice reasonably priced bags recently - if you haven't found one yet you might want to check them out.  The one with the original horn and powder measure seems like one heck of a nice rig for the money.

wwpete52,

It seems to me that you also make some very nice bags at very reasonable prices.

Hey Guy's..Just signed up on this site and while reading the topics, I noticed my name on this one. What a suprise. Thanks for the nice comments regarding my work. I have been in the muzzleloading fraternity for close to 50 years now and have been making hunting pouches about as long.  I recently got to retire and a good friend of mine, Karl Fisher, talked me into making a case for a knife he had made. One thing led to another and next thing I knew, I was back to making hunting pouches again. I have recently sold a few bags on the CLA site and from time to time, you will occasionally see one or two show up.

I have enjoyed viewing the other pouches and accoutrement's that are being produced out there, by so many talented people. I might also add that since I have had some initial exposure back into the muzzleloading fraternity, I have met some of the nicest people, who are so quick to give encouragement and much needed advice when needed.

Thanks again and maybe I will get to meet some of you in person at the next CLA show in Lexington........Frank

Welcome to the forum Frank.  Always nice to get new members - and if they happen to also have a field of expertise (as you do) that they can share with the rest of us - well that's just more icing on the cake!   ;D
