    The most unreliable with the gun is me. I have always a misfire when I´ve forgotten to fill in the powder(I´m specialist in doing so). If I have filled in the powder I normally have no misfires and flintlock shooting makes addicted.

    Swedish guns

    For me it looks like a prussian Jägerbüchse before 1796. Btw where is "Frisberg"? I cant find a city with that name, sounds more like the name of a person.
