Thought I might introduce myself with my first post. I've been enjoying this site for several years and decided to jine up. Just some background.....I live in middle Tennessee just a few miles SE of Nashville and have been shooting and building(just a little) since the early seventies. I have also belonged to the NMLRA since about that same time, as well, and try to get up there every year if I can. If you run into me at Friendship, you might see on the bench line shooting my enfield musket, the offhand line with a flinter, and once in a blue moon on the pistol line. Otherwise, I might be hanging out with the Alabama and Georgia bunch.

I'm thankful for this great site and I'm looking froward, more than ever, to my time spent here.

Welcome to the forum, Wobblesnot.  Yep, us (with the singular exception of myself) Southern boys can shoot up a storm.  Glad to have you on board.

Welcome WS,  I'm in Cannon (aka Shotgun) Co.  I'll be shooting with the Elk River Longrifles when i get this one going. John is my "local" guru.

May have a trail to shoot out here before too long.  Keep in touch.

Welcome Wobblyshot. You'll fine some well informed and highly intelligent folks here. I've been involved in BP/ML since 1965 and I learn something new every day. Enjoy and feel free to contribute. :) Ron from cold northern Ohio.

John is a great guy. I've known him for years. I plan on attending the next ERLR shoot in January.....weather permiting, of course.
