"Flash in the pan"

[Silvertip8k]

I hope you folks find this as interesting as i did...i was trying to make a short video for my yt channel and found out just how amazing these phones we have nowadays really are...

I would never believe it if i didnt see it myself...its a super short micro second...i found it doing the edit...

The flash is right after the flint hitting ...you can see the video on my yt channel ...its the same name as my user name here

Makes you see the design of the frizzen pans and how they really channel that ignition blast awsy from your face!!

Its amazing what the naked eye misses!

This one was taken especially to show what happens when the prime flashes. The only light is from the flash, and you can see all the embers flying away from the pan from the pressure generated. The prime was 1.6 grains of 4Fg.

I did some slow motion videos of my flintlock. It’s pretty cool to watch. I had to edit them in order to keep them less than 30 seconds long or viewers lost interest. I wish I could post them on here. I’m not sure how. Maybe through YouTube?

That's a tray from a field box on the stand up bench next to the sit down bench I am on.

OK, me too, me too -
This is a 19th century North African replica of a Snaphance from around the early 1600s, firing a bit of paper.

W Russell .Nice you took the trouble to make such a piece. Not many would even consider making a snaphance of N African style .I would but few others would I surmise .

All early versions of tactical smoke, later they had to put it in a can that you threw down range for concealment.

I love the moment when the pans ignited, the charge is, then as it leaves the muzzle it blasts back out the flash hole too. Super cool to see in slow motion.

That mini cannon is adorable!
