Items for Sale/Wanted / Re: Two Priming Horns for sale

Timing is everything; I’d just settled down with a glass of Woodford Reserve when Cory’s post popped up.  But y’all will get a chance to have one of them.  I’m having Cory send one to Dennis to raffle off with the proceeds to go supporting the ALR.

Don

That is right so everyone can pick them up there and support the ALR. 

Thanks Don,

Gun Building / Re: Ferguson

« Last post by 120RIR on Today at 05:19:33 AM »

There's a lot of indirect and circumstantial evidence supporting the assertion that Ferguson rifles were at King's Mountain but here is also now a piece of hard evidence.  A "battlefield archaeology" team from the University of Florida recently (I think it was just some months or ago or in 2019...I'll have to confirm) recovered a fired and partially flattened round ball with very prominent and well-defined land and groove impressions.  I emphasize "very" because it's not like they're faint residual scratches that might come from a thinly patched ball or anything like that. One could always come up with an alternative explanation of it coming from some other type of firearm (I suppose anything is possible), but it seems pretty unlikely.
