Dear MikeOTDP;

Welcome to the Civil War Talk Forums.

Please take your own pace and speed here; there is no quota system per se; and feel free to roam all the forums and also the archives as to get an idea of things that are talked about.

Respectfully submitted,
M. E. Wolf

MikeOTDP,

Welcome to the forum.

Sure hope you will make available some of your knowledge and background with Cvil War era firearms.

It would be deeply appreciated.

Sincerely,
Unionblue

Mike,

Good to have you aboard. I lived for many years in Crofton, MD - miss those days.

Welcome to the group.

Where in Maryland are you from? I used to live in Cambridge, Maryland.

Where is Maryland? (Nevermind)

Pull up a seat. We have some amazing times here, and I'm glad you've decided to share them with us.

Welcome Mike. While not a member myself, I had three sharpshooting articles published in The Skirmish Line.
