Well, we're holdin' the door wide open for you...come on in !

Note:
Flintlocks and blackpowder are a sickness...or at least a syndrome.....there is no cure and there's no 12-step program.

The only thing that heps keeps it in remission after starting with Flintlocks is shooting it often...making a lot of pretty white smoke.

But even that is only good for a year...then you have to get another one in a different caliber...and another year / another caliber, etc, etc.

Note: Our welcome to the world of Flintlocks conveys no relief for marital discord which may result from you spending lots of time with your Flintlocks, complaining about a nick on your finger from a sharp black english flint, coming back from the range grinning while smelling of BP smoke, etc.

But seriously, there's just nothing like it...pick up a good used TC Hawken or something for not a lot of money and try it...if you don't like it you can always resell the Hawken and not lose anything..........but, I bet if you once try it.........
