Thanks for the nice comments guys. Kevin McDonald with the KRA did a great job with the layout, it made my humble contribution look much better.

Great article and I am glad to see it in the KRA bulletin. Many don't realize how large the gunmaker pool was in this area of NC.
I am sure that many of our new members may not be aware of all the treasures that can be found in the ALR virtual museum found here:

ALR is blessed to have number of articles that Michael Briggs wrote about NC gun making. Below are 6 that are in the Virtual Library. For ease of access, I placed a link by each topic, clicking on the link should take you directly to the article. We are grateful for Michael's contributions.
