    Moden guns overpriced

    This post is ridiculous. How long would it take you to make a quality rifle. Craftsmen a a limited and valuable breed. Pay them what they are worth or do it yourself snowflake

    Flintlock swabbing process? How to clean between shots?

    after each shot I run an appropriate brass brush down the entire barrel and back up. This will loosen and remove that green black gunk. Invert the rifle Muzzle down and tap on a pad or small block of wood. this removes the loose reside. NEVER TAP MUZZLE INTO THE EARTH!!! Then a dry patch to...
