New here, looking forward to hearing from the members.

First got involved in Black powder guns in 1975 when I purchased a 1860 Navy in 44 however I shoot mostly modern guns. 16 years ago I bought my 2nd revolver an 1858 Remington. I eventually did a Kirst Cartridge conversion on it and loved it. I recently bought a third pistol, and 1851 Navy in .44 and immediately did another cartridge conversion on it. I am now considering doing a conversion on my 1860.

Welcome, Angeleyes. I love those Konverters. Got one for my ROA and its becoming my go-to hunting backup gun instead of my .357.

Like the OP I got my first black powder gun in 1975. A little gun shop/now long gone/ on the east side of Indianapolis. It was a Ruger Old Army. My Dad liked it so much he bought one himself. I now own both.
Welcome to the forum. You will find there aren't any members here looking to ding you for mentioning something that upsets their little world.
