flintlock touch hole

[Old Painless]

I set up my barrel on the drill press. Center punched and drilled. But somehow I got it off center to the flash pan.
Will the gun fire ok? What I get for having two gun builds at same time.

You will be just fine. If it really bothers you, grind the pan a bit larger.

i have one where the rear of the pan almost covers the vent. i champhered a slot in the face of the liner and it is one of the most reliable igniters i have.

You're good to go.
