Welcome to Our Blog!

Welcome! We are starting this blog to introduce newcomers to our sport, muzzleloading, and to our publications. We have been publishing our magazine, MUZZLELOADER, six times yearly since 1974, and we are the only independent publication devoted exclusively to traditional black powder firearms. You can find out more about our company and publications on our website, http://www.muzzleloadermag.com/.

A big part of the fascination with black powder arms for us is the history associated with them. Thus the history of the black powder era is a big part of what we publish. Every issue of MUZZLELOADER has articles about the history of the firearms or of the times in which they were used.

Also very popular with our readers are how-to articles. Most readers like to try making their gear themselves, so almost every issue of MUZZLELOADER will have at least one hands-on article.

Our other publications are all books connected with our love for early American history, from firearms and other collectibles to historical reenacting.

  1. Having reviewed all the back issue Historical articles..especially the series Cache of The Hollow Tree by Tony Hunter and Eyewitness to History series Jim Crutchfield - I was wondering if you would ever consider publishing the collections in book form...such great, readable history?
