Rick,
Feel free to use whatever photos you wish!
Pleased you like it!
As it is still in the UK, it may be a while before I can get a look at it myself!
Dear Jens,
Is it nine years already?? How time flies!
I Did so enjoy your visit and wish you could have stayed longer.
You do well to limit your collecting, as you have learned and taught the rest of us much more by specialising!
I am, sadly, a jack of all trades and master of none! My interests are too spread and I wish I could discipline myself to a narrower field.
The only matchlock I have used up to now is the home-made one, but would really like to try an Indian arm, as I have read how well they worked and how reliable.
Whatever I restore, I do like to use, and yes, we do fire our old arms at the yearly gathering.
I will send you a link to one or two of our past shoots Jens, (YouTube) and then you can see what we get up to!
Each year we have a theme, and this year is India again!
The setting is always the Victorian era, but we move about the Empire so to speak!
If you ever come back to Canada, please come & stay for longer next time!!
Richard.
