Like it says, I'm interested in getting started with black powder and would like to do it with a pistol - what's a good "starter" gun, where to get it, etc?
I know Uberti and Taylors make higher-end reproductions, would it make sense to start with one like that or with something cheaper?
I also do know that now is a bad time to get into anything new in firearms, but it could also be a good way to scratch the shooting itch for a while. Plus I think lots of those early Colts and similar guns are extremely cool, just as functional machines.
Then there's the learning about BP shooting part - we have a few members at my IWLA club who shoot, and I'll go hit them up for advice too, but MDS is so easy to start with. So here I am.
Thanks and all that!
