Boy and their toys

Finally my OH got to fire his new Flintlock Musket, it will probably keep him amused for weeks but even I got to have a go and hit the target {these are very rare, photo's of me } as it's me always taking the photo's

My other half and his new gun





A very happy boy



Me firing the gun



And I hit the target

Well done for having a go. No flash in the pans then

My Dad used to have a Black powder ticket and we used to shoot these. I can still remember the awful smell when he used to wash the barrels out with boiling water, it smelt like rotten eggs

Thanks KenTT, it's been a lot of messing about for him to get his Black powder licence etc, so he has been waiting to fire it now for several months, so Saturday was a big day for him. but each time he gets a new gun, it's a good excuse for me to get some more camera equipment

Hehe - looks like fun! I have used similar items in the past (cannot remember what though!) with an activity trip I did some years ago, was loads of fun, but I was a bit hopeless! ;D

I have an image of daffy duck running back and forth just out of shot

I think I need help

Must say I am not a fan of guns but do like the two pictures of you looking all pleased with yourself

Totally agree with Azz..not keen on guns but it's lovely to see you looking so chuffed musky..well done that girl!

It was fun and kept us amused for the day


Never mind Skyline, that's the sort of thing i would think of, but if daffy duck was running back and forth, i certainly wouldn't be firing at it {it just so happens one of my ducks is call daffy }




Me neither Azz, i'm amazed they talked me into having a go, but i'm pleased i did, and it made my OH's day when i hit the target




Thanks Daisy, i have always had a sense of adventure and i don't believe it should stop, just because i'm passing middle age, well actually passed middle age, but we won't go into that
