Welcome to the TMA - the Traditional Muzzleloading Association

The TMA is always free to access: totally non-profit and therefore no nagging for your money, no sponsors mean no endless array of ads, and no "membership fees" ever required. Brought to you by traditional muzzleloaders with decades of knowledge in weaponry, accoutrements, and 18th and 19th century history of those times during the birth our nation, the United States of America.

Thanks Rob. I'm glad that video is still with us. I just wish I knew who all of those people were. Would I be right in assuming all of them might be tied into the TMA somehow ?

That's a compilation video of TMA members going waaaaay back, at rondy's and events. 

We'd need some of the old timers still here to weigh in on who's who!

The first one i think was Dave Poss - Longknife
The second one is Al Bateman - Two Steps
And then a lot of guys I remember their faces  but their names?   :Doh!
I liked the last photo showing "The future of TMA"
Anyone know who they are and if that was only wishful thinking or are they still around here?
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.
