Graham's first flintlock experience....

[jderrick]

Well, took my co-worker Graham down to the range yesterday....

Wish I hadn't had a flash in the pan, but still a good time: http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c23/jderrick/?action=view&current=Grahamflintlock_0001.flv

That's great !!! But I have to say that I'm geek-ing out a little bit after seeing that Photobucket is giving you/me 100 meg of video space. Oh man that's cool.

/grabs video camera and heading out the door. :grin:

What was the load, there seemed to be almost no visible recoil, you should have cranked the charge up, then we'd see if good ol' Graham says "Wonderful" after cracking off a max load... :haha:

The seeds were sewn, he shot his first flintlock, he is now looking to buy himself a flinter, right?

 

:thumbsup: :rotf: :haha: :grin:

Well, I ws working with a pretty light load -- 40 grains of FFFg... just for light target stuff. I don't know if he's planning on getting a flinter now, but I'll keep working on him. Thanks!
