Watch yourself, Ed. Once you get a flinchlock you will tend to ignore you
nipple guns. I have a perfectly serviceable TC .54 cap gun that has been
fired only twice in about six years. Get you a good rock crusher and you
will be hooked. I have a custom .62 Northwest Trade Gun and a fine .53
rifle with the prettiest tiger maple stock you would ever want to see and I
crave more. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Nipples have no business on weapons... They have much better uses...

I went to the Market Fair and Rifle Frolic at Ft Loudoun, co-event with Ft Frederick. For a west coaster it was a neat experience. There were over 100 sutlers and over 700 campers. I was in Pennsylvania visiting my daughter, so spent a couple of days at Rdvs.. I fell in with a bunch of northern New Yorkers, who treated me like a long lost friend (most of my friends wished I were long lost...) I planned on buying my meals at the several food vendors there, but my new friends wouldn't let me spend a dime....they fed me like a King. I met several AMM brothers there. It was fun seeing how the easterners did things. I hope to return again next year.... to see my new rdvs friends, and to see my grandkids again. Yfab, Randy

Vicki and I just got back from the Colonial Market Fair at Jacksons Mill in Weston, WV and did GREAT!! The event was sponsored by Rick and Linda Blizard. Last we heard when they were not going to have a Fort Fred any more, so Rick and Linda set this one up.
IT WAS GREAT!!! :) Not many vendors ( 8 I think) and about 100 campers,

Joe, Sorry I accidentally deleted the post where you gave a source for
horsehair rope.
I thought it was your website, but searched through and couldn't find it
