Re: flint and cap & ball shooters - on this board?
Cam, thanks.
I come and go on muzzleloaders, a few years back i was into them heavy and just seen one on the net so built one.
It has a Green MT. barrel on it the rest i made.
I haven`t hunted with it or archery for a few years now but may again one of these years.

But it does move, here`s what we have so far.
