6 BORE TUBE LOCK MUZZLE LOADERS FIRST OUTING.

[four bore]

A FRIEND OF MINE TOLD ME HE NEW WHERE THEIR IS A TUBE LOCK, SO AFTER A CHAT ON THE PHONE I WENT TO HAVE A LOOK AT IT.
IT WAS THE SORT OF GUN I LIKE TO SHOOT, ESPECIALLY FOR A DUCK OR BETTER STILL A GOOSE.
THE TUBE LOCK NEEDED A BIT OF TLC, AN OVER ALL CLEAN AND GENTLE POLISH OF THE BORE, WHICH IS GOOD.
AFTER A PHONE CALL SOME TUBES FOUND TO HOPEFULLY GET THE GUN TO GO BANG.......!

SO WHEN ON A TRIP NORTH OF THE BORDER IT CAME WITH ME TO SEE HOW IT GOES.........! [ MY SHOOTING MATE SAID YOUR MAD IT WONT GO OFF, I SAID IT WILL GO YOU WILL SEE.]
THEIR WAS A FEW GREYS FLIGHTING ON THE PATCH WE SHOOT ON, THE WIND WAS RIGHT AND QUITE STRONG SO I TOOK THE GUN
GOT MYSELF TUCKED IN AND OUT OF SIGHT, A SMALL PARTY OF GREYS CAME, LIFTED THE GUN SWUNG THROUGH ONE AND A GREAT BOOM ROARED OUT AND A GREAT CLOUD OF SMOKE, A GOOD CLEAN MISS AT LEAST THE GUN WENT OFF.
I WAITED FOR A LITTLE WHILE THEN ANOTHER SMALL PARTY APPEARED, WITH PLENTY OF LEAD AND A BOOM AND PLENTY OF SMOKE A NICE
GREY CAME DOWN TO EARTH, WAS PLEASED WITH THE GUN.I THEN LOADED THE GUN AGAIN FULL OF CONFIDENCE READY FOR ANOTHER IF
POSSIBLE, A SINGLE BIRD CAME TO MY LEFT HAND SIDE A BIT OF LEAD AND I LET GO ANOTHER BOOM AND PLENTY OF SMOKE DOWN IT CAME
DOWN PLEASED AS PUNCH, WILL HAVE IF POSSIBLE THIS SEASON HAVE A DUCK OR TWO.
