Huzzah! She shoots, she fires and with that BIG true 75-cal ball and 80+ grain charges, she kicks like a mule, even though hangs out there well at 10-pounds. She's a 46" barreled 77-cal EARLY musket. The stock design and workmanship is just superb and the lock mechanism is unique as all get out! She has a looooong throw when you cock her back! The 'safety' if you will, is to keep the 'manual' pan cover closed and the frizzen rocked forward out of battery.
I am the lucky 'current' owner (@TobJohn is next in line ... ) of this wonderful piece that @rickystl had built and I indebted to him forever in that regard, plus even more so for his friendship!
