While we have a black powder forum here at nitroexpress, you will get a wider and more knowledgable base of help from dedicated black powder sites. An 'inline' black powder site will not give you the help you need to get started with antique or replica antique caplock or flintlock black powder firearms.

I personally like www.americanlongrifles.com - while others prefer other sites. The very best North American Longrifle and muzzleloading gun makers frequent that site & can give excellent advice on all aspects of shooting cap locks and flint guns alike, as well as wheellocks, and/etc. Some even shoot hand gonnes - matchlock pistols of the late(I think) 14th century.

At nitro express, the caplock shooters are actually outnumbered by flintlock shooters just as they are at the range I shoot at here in BC. What better place to obtain help, than from a place where most everyone shoots what you want to & have been for decades.

At ALR, the primary focus in on American guns, but I shoot and prefer English patterns and European military guns myself, yet am welcome there. I also shoot flintlock longrifles and squirrel rifles.

Many on that site started shooting black powder guns - originals and production, in the 60's and early 70's, so there is a huge source of experience to draw from. Again, a goodly number incudlign myself have been involved in Ml and BP ctg. gun competition for more than 30 years.
