Horns and bags

[Doug]

What is the general consensus of the group?  Do you have a different bag and horn for every gun, a different bag and horn for each caliber containing both flint and percussion accessories, or one or two bags that you rotate items in for what is needed?

[Roaring Bull]

I got one horn and one flask and one bag.....

[bwhoffman]

I have a bag and either a horn or a flask for each gun, be it rifle, pistol or smoothbore.
Mainly because.... I make a decent bag, I shoot several caliber guns and each gun has its own items of need.

1 bag, 1 horn. i shoot flinters, and they all use the same basic stuff, i only shoot .50 and .54 cals so same patches, jags, flints anr such, i just swap balls

I have one for each caliber. I have one bag for the .45 guns, one for the .50 guns, and one for the smoothies. I also do like dave, they are all rock locks except onee, so I have only one flint wallet. I do have one cap gun and a tin of caps is in the .50 bag for it...

Have always had one bag, one horn and one flask.  Thats about to change, taking the route of several on this forum I am collecting the gear to have a series of bags,etc.  Going to have one bag for .32/.36, then A .45 flint bag.  A .50 cal bag for cap locks, a .54/.56/.58 bag.  Also a shotgun cap lock bag.  Plus a .75 cal flint musket bag. The flask/horn will not be as big an issue. One horn for the small bores, a horn for the .45 flint, a buffalo horn for the cap locks .50 through .58.  A flask for the shotgun......the reason I made this decision is in the past, every time I went shooting, no matter how I planed, in the process of gathering my gear together, I always without exception, left something behind.  It never failed, something was forgotten.  By classifying certain bags to certain calibers or guns I think I can eliminate this problem.  Besides, it gives me the excuse to make more bags and horns.  At this time I have collected Ball pullers and other accessories for each calibers etc. for each bag.  Theoretically, I should be able to just grab the horn/bag combo with the right gun and go.  All I will need should be there ready to go.  This eliminates the need to swap a lot of accessories.

i have a bag and horn for every gun i own  so when i get ready to take one out ever thing i need is right there in the bag ready to go.  

[gonzales]

I have a kit for each so any specific neccessaries are on hand for that particular gun.

I keep them all stocked and powdered so they are ready to go shoot at a moments notice.

Never know when I can sneak off and go shooting.

Keep the responses coming we have heard from the usual posters now lets hear from the browsers.

I am attempting to complete a bag and horn for each individual gun that I make for myself. Others that get stuck with one of my creations have to fend for themselves.

I have one horn for #2 powder, one for #3, One for # 4. Then two bags,one for rifle, one for smoothbore. I would like one bag, one horn for each gun some day.
