So I had a black powder class today

And one shooter brought an 1883 squirrel gun! It had a Leman lock on it and I did't see any other markings on it. Being only 32 cal, it was tough to clean. After they cleaned it, I treated it with Renaissance Wax.

Sorry no pics. Didn't have a camera on me.

How deep was the class

Gary, during this class do you teach C&B's, Shotgun as well and rifles? A few years back, I took this class over a two day period. It was conducted by two chief instructors from the NMLRA. It was presented as and instructor's class and certified the students as instructors. ……

We had a few die-hard BuckSkinners in this class that took some exceptions to what was presented. Kind of hard to let go of old habits, good or bad ….

Be Safe !!!
