Note: Mods, I purposely chose NOT to put this in the Black Powder shooting forums, because the vast majority of folks that hang out there have proven, for better or worse, that they are ONLY interesting in discussing non-inline, traditional true black powder front stuffers (from a powder horn, while wearing a coonskin hat & a bowie knife). The condescending attitudes over there are thick and palpable when inlines are brought up. So please do not move it there. However, I am one of (apparently) millions upon millions of hunter who, OTOH, view the ML season as little more than a way to extend rifle season, and thus want every possible advantage, which includes inline/209 guns, optical sights, and yes, even smokeless powder which is legal here. With that in mind.....
Man oh man do I feel like a pariah trying to find accessories in local stores for my new .45 cal ML. There are gazillions upon gazillions of 50 cal brushes, mops, worms, jags, powder, pre-formed powder charges, etc., etc. But aside from bullets and powder, I find virtually no ramrod accessories or anything else for .45s for that matter. I just can't figure out why they sell the guns in the first place if so few people buy the accessories that they can't justify carrying the products.
Just venting/sharing some frustration.....
