Kibler Kit Assembly Class March 2021 - Day 1
After a night of thunderstorms in Friendship, Indiana, students arrived ready to learn at the second Kibler Kit assembly class with Mike Brooks and Wayne Estes. Workstations are spread apart in the NMLRA Education Center, giving students enough room to spread out their tools through the week. Many of the 7 students have come with their rifles still in the box, but a couple have already assembled their kits, looking to focus on learning to carve traditional motifs into their longrifle stocks.

Since I am primarily a pistol shooter and had been taking part in active muzzle loading pistol competition for little more than a year, I knew I had a lot to learn, also if I were to participate at Friendship I would need a flint pistol that “shot where it looked” in addition to my .44 caliber percussion dueller.
