    lots of left handed flintlocks
    I wonder how common they really were during that time period?

    I spotted one of our club members in there.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    Jim Bridger was only 19 when he was with the men who found Hugh Glass. It bothered him for the rest of his life for leaving the man and even taking the guy's gun and knife.
