Nice. And once again the bargains come AFTER I've bought a pistol and the gear piecemeal for much more money.

I'm not surprised your lungs can't take it, that bloody Pyrodex is a real throat grabber, now real black powder is far more inhaler friendly.

I know Dromia , but isn't it a bit of a pain with blackpowder having to store it separate and in a different box..etc..etc...Is it classed as an explosive.

Not at all, all the black powder shooters I know don't find it an issue.

Why would you think it would be a "bit of a pain"?

I don't know I was under the impression that it had to be stored separate and in a special container.?.anyway the gun has to go I need the money to help pay for a 7.62/.308 rifle.
