While looking through the website, I found where they catalog a huge number of articles written on many different subject, including a vast and interesting array of muzzleloading firearms. I thought that it might be of interest to others as well.

I downloaded like 7 of them to print out and put into a binder to keep for reference materials. I'm positive there will be a LOT more! There's a couple about North Carolina gunmaker schools I can't wait to read.

Bull, this one stands out at me, as the last rifle shown (Andy Thomas Rifle) is supposedly the rifle Crockett took to the Alamo... If this is so - history needs to be corrected as every writer of this subject has always said they couldn't imagine Crockett taking a caplock rifle to Texas - but here it is,,, so it's said... Man this is a neat site for sure! Thanks again!!!

Wow, another great site! I doubt that I will be invited to join the limited 250 members any time soon! Nice of them to make the information available though.

Yeah I've been reading mainly those centered on North Carolina. But there's plenty of stuff to choose from.
