Contemporary Longrifle Association | 2023 Event Tour | Muzzleloading Art and Accoutrements

If you’re unfamiliar with the contemporary Long Rifle Association or the CLA it is an organization, a nationwide organization set up to honor and carry on the traditions of contemporary long rifle culture. Each year, thousands of contemporary long rifle association members convene on to one location for a two-day show that encompasses really the best artisans and craftspeople of long rifle culture. At the show, you’ll see everything from original muzzle loaders and original pieces, all kinds of accouterments, bags, horns and things all the way up to the namesake being the contemporary made long rifles and their accouterments. The show hall is filled with artisans and craftspeople and historians. It’s really kind of a one stop shop for anything that you love about muzzleloding culture. If you want to learn about muzzleloader building, learn about bag making, leather working, knife making, tomahawk making, talk to the authors of books that have done firsthand research on all this stuff. It really has everything. The CLA Show is the kind of event that you don’t see everywhere. It’s a really special event. This is my first time back in a few years now, especially with last year being canceled and I’m really happy to come to you today and report that from what I’ve heard from everybody that I talked to you there, the show went really well and they’re really excited for next year’s event.
