My flinters so far..
« on: June 18, 2024, 01:59:15 PM »
Here's my flinters I've aquired so far.. I've had a few others come and go..
L to R
Cva 50
J. Brown 54 SMR
.45 Penn
20 gauge trade gun..
Next one id like to add is a little soddy, or a  dainty thin little Tennessee with iron mounts in 40 or 36..
My SMR is nice, but still pretty thick and hungry in 54

Eye candy for sure. Does your wife clean your guns after you make them dirty ? Well I'm still working on that one at No Powders residence. If she comes home while I'm cleaning one, she says it stinks. Imagine that.

Obviously, she has no appreciation for the finer things in life. :Doh! :Doh!
That's a bummer for sure. :laffing

Danged if my wife doesn't say the same thing.   :bigsmile:

I really needed to hear that buddy. Thanks. Now I just have to figure out if I should tell her or not. Probably not.
