Hello I’m from South California

[CLAUSEWITZVON]

Hello guys. I’m new here from south California. And I’m an Asian American. I’m very interested for old and antique firearms, especially those 1800s-1900s muzzleloaders and even wwI weapons... When I was a teenager in China, I never touched any firearms because China is a gun-totally-ban country. When I went to US several years ago and be naturalized a US citizen, I started to enter to the firearm field... Now I have 8 firearms... which include 3 muzzleloaders, 1 small bore shotgun, 2 revolvers, 1 .22 rifle and 1 pre-WWI antique rifle...
And how do I find this forum? Yesterday I searched muzzleloader knowledge by google, I found out this forum, then I’m be here lol.
Thank you all, guys.

And... see my oooooold rifle, and guess what it is? lol

Good introduction. Sorry that you have to endure California. I have 3 sisters still living there. Cannot convince them to move to Texas.

No idea what your rifle is, but it is a cool old rifle.
