My first definite point find.

After only about 30 years of searching I finally found my first mostly intact point. I found it in the eastern plains of Colorado, and as far as I can tell it's a Mckean point.

After only about 30 years of searching...

I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Cutter! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forums: Select Your Area.... and selecting location information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country). You might also consider adding your state (or country) to your displayed profile (SETTINGS -> EDIT PROFILE) so if you ask a question, etc. - people may have more success helping you (your location may help, etc.)...

That's a fine point and I'm guessing also that is a rifle butt stock it's next to. Just to help others when you post put a ruler beside the item, coin or just the inch's on the artifact. Super find and I hope you are hooked now.

It's definitely going to be hard to top this one.

 

[cutter4320]

Will do. Thanks!

It's the grip of a pistol. I'll definitely use a ruler in the future.

Oh! I thought it was a butt of a rifle, haha I thought it was much bigger! Still a great find tho.

That’s a killer point nice find , I’d be out at that spot looking and below that area where’s some may have washed out.

Nice one! Congratulations.

What a great old point!!! Congratulations, finding an intact one definitely doesn’t come easy. We’re you along a river? I would think they were well traveled!!! Hopefully you you were at a camp that is being windblown where some more might show up! Cheers!

Nice find!

Thanks everybody. I found it at a buddy's property that I think was a long term camp based off of the date range of points that have been found there. It's got a fairly flat topped hill that is the highest spot for about 10 miles. The best part about the place is that I'm the only person who hunts it.
