    musket spark?

    The odd time the PH musket will delay fire. Next shot may be fine and doing nothing different.It throws the shot when that happens. So for hunting to avoid boo boos has anyone ever unscrewed the nipple and placed 3-4 granules of powder under it just to make sure of fire all the way through

    What finish for enfield musketoon

    I struggle to believe that the weatherby type gloss blue on my PH musketoons barrel and bands would be indicative of the period. Can someone clue me as to what finish would be correct?
