Howdy from WV
« on: July 09, 2022, 07:53:29 AM »
Wow, evidently I joined this forum who knows how many years ago and then forgot about it. Since I recently moved to WV and am shooting pretty much nothing but flintlocks any more, I guess I ought to participate a bit more. Looks like it will be a good place to hang out. Howdy, y'all!

Howdy, Nobade.  Glad to see you found your way back.  Welcome home.
How's about a little more info, and by the way, we all like photos.

 Glad to see you back, Nobade.
Hope you exercise those Flintlocks in our Postal match!
I'm  not  H/C or P/C or even a particularly  good shot but I have a hell of a good time!

Dedicated to the TMA.

I did the same thing. I had joined many years ago and forgot I had joined. I remember when I joined, this TMA list was just starting to have folks become charter members. Looking forward to your posts.  Just north of you in the hills of S.E. Ohio.
