Want to buy horn for project.
« on: March 06, 2025, 02:30:50 AM »
Need a horn from which to make a powder horn.  Have a young fatherless neighbor kid who I am playing grandfather for.  Just need a horn which can be on the small side but would like it to have some white on it so I can get him to scrim it some.  It will be a project he will execute with me. 

Requirement has been filled.  I posted a sincere thank you which is at the end of the offers.  Please scroll down.

If you PM me an address, I will have Lucky at Powder Horns & More send you one, and pay for it.  We all need to “pay it forward” for next generation.....

Same here! I have a few extra horns. Many of them came from Fred Depoy’s estate. Fred was at Douglas barrels for years and would smile at a young man making horns from his stash!

PM an address and I’ll send a couple.

It's a shame we all don't know a young person to do this for. It's got me trying to think of someone.   Al

You probably got more than you need by now, if not, drop me a PM. I'd be glad to help out.

I want to thank all of you offering horns for my project with the father less boy.  I have accepted an offer now and am really proud of you folks the way you are willing to step up.  Folks on this website are certainly the most generous with help in sharing knowledge, time and resources. Well done guys.
