I have been in the woods to long. I was surfing long ago and hit Beaverman.Then Uncle Russ handed me a Ball jar and the rest is history.I maybe a little cloudy on history

The stuff in that "Mason Jar" was a special batch of con-vincer, that had been properly made, stilled and aged.... it convinced you right on the spot that you were doing the right thing by joining-up, and you did, and they danced and danced, and everybody lived happy thereafter....gotta love those Mason Jars :rotf  

I remember those times, good times indeed!

never was a "joiner" I had been on other forums.... but only the last several years or so.....  I never was big on spending my time typing into these things as all of my time at work is on line - this gets to be like work for me - but I see the need to promote muzzle loading, every aspect, so I looked -
here I am..... kinda like that

Wow, none of the options apply for me.  As I said in my introduction, I got the TMA group recommended to me by Facebook, asked Riely if I could join, then found the website and the forum.

I picked recommended in person but that was the second introduction to the site.  I found it first on google while searching for information on period correct flintlocks for 1790 -1810.  Looked at it but didn't join then.
Joined after VEDearduff talked me into it.  Been making and shooting caplocks since the early 1970's.  Just got into flintlock.  I did buy a paid membership yesterday.  Looks like the site doesn't automatically update that.  I will have to wait for that to show up.

I found it by going to GOOGLE SEARCH- MUZZLE LOADING FORUMS, and liked what I saw.
