    NWTG in the Colonies?

    Dude you are very wrong and arrogant over an opinion. The French had a very strong influence after the Declaration of 1763. They were in Western North Carolina which is now Tennessee and their guns were in the over mountain region. Many possibilities are open for French weapons.

    Progressively rifled barrel for Enfield 1853/58

    Ño you are wrong. The rifle Muskets of the 1850s had deeper rifling at the breech and as the Minie ball moved up the Barrel the rifling became shallower. This caused the awesome accuracy of the rifle Muskets of the day. Pedersoli has really cheated us today by just having standard round ball...
