Hello! New member with some stuff and questions.

I AM NOT be selling from this thread! Please don't ask.
I am hoping the appropriate Moderator or Admin will post or PM me so I can ask some questions. 

Have not been and don't expect to become a muzzleloader or Schuetzen shooter.   
It feels wrong to randomly go into threads and make 10 random posts to gain access to the  For Sale/Trade Forum.
Will gladly communicate with a Mod/Admin and provide proof of life. 
Thank you! 

Goal is to get these in the hands of people who will use them with the least amount of hassle. 
The ASSRA forum was suggested as the best place to do so. 

If I step across any lines or have bent any rules with this post, please let me know!

I purchased a fair number of (what I now know are) interesting muzzleloading and Schuetzen barrels.

List of makers I have identified.

Octagon Barrels (NoS):
W.M. (Bill) Large
Douglas
Getz
K.R. Bresien
Siegrist
GMRB(Green Mountain)

Round Barrels & Blanks:
K.R. Bresien (HEAVY finished barrels) & one possible blank.
Shilen
SAECO
Douglas

Schuetzen barrels and blanks:   
Stevens
Audette
Dave Taylor 
Douglas 

There are other octagon and round barrels with no identifying marks.

Welcome to the forum. When you post them for sale I would be interested in Stevens barrels.

It is not that much of a chore to do 10 posts.  Post some photos of the barrels.

Might add state to your profile. Give a hint of where you are. 
I'm old and figured out how to post pics. I'm an engineer so anyone should be able to figure it out.  Grin

Ten posts in my own thread? 
That was not how I read the instructions but if that is acceptable.

Hint:  I drive by Getz's old shop a few times a year. 
Did learn something about picture hosting here.   File size is tiny and they software doesn't automatically resize.    Flip phone file sizes .   Cheesy

Douglas barrels and picture resized even smaller. 

EDIT:  20% of original size fits screen.

Another maker and the false muzzle

EDIT:  File size is tiny. 
Had to resize three four times to get these pics to acceptable file and display size. 

EDIT III:  Pics deleted, as they displayed in a huge manner even after multiple resizing.   

Apologies for using this thread as practice, but I need ten posts and will need pictures when time comes to sell.

Picture test.  
Getz muzzle. 

EDIT:  If anyone would comment about the various picture sizes in this thread. 
My resizing seems to have little affect on how they display on my monitor.

Central PA. 
Cannot add to my profile.   
Thought I might need the same 10 posts to edit.

Unless this is the wrong page?
