That’s interesting! I used to play with Estes model rockets as a kid.

I have no interest in BP but it’s nice to see that Estes not only bought the factory and brand but plans to continue the business. They could’ve just bought it to produce their own products or cannibalize to improve their current production.

That’s good news!

There was 0 chance someone wouldn't pick it up. Guess y'all can quit bottling all your piss now.

It doesn't matter to me one way or t'other... I have 'nuff black powder to last the rest of me lifetime, long as It gets burnt up in muzzleloaders!

How much powder on average does a canon use per shot Mr Billy ?

 

[Gunbelt]

Powdervalleyinc has no black powder in stock. They usually have the Schuetzen brand between $16-19 a lb. Somebody needs to make some.

Now Ruger just needs to restart Old Army production.

Time to dust off the Hawken Flintlock !!

I'm happy to hear that Estes is bringing it back. Now if we can get some local stores to actually carry BP on the shelves.
