The flash in the pan called the other flash in the pan a flash in the pan.
And ... both technically and accurately, in the case of the percussion gun, it would be a "flash in the nipple," wouldn't it?The flash in the pan called the other flash in the pan a flash in the pan.
Well, yeah. But you wouldn't want to use some BICYCLE tool on your muzzleloader, would you?You probably COULD get $20 a pop for these. After all, the same CO2 discharger sold for muzzleloaders can be bought for about half the price at any bicycle shop.
I can’t think of a more sure fire way to get a stubborn Flinter to go off-Every flintlock shooter knows you don’t waste time getting the rock out of the jaw to throw if it does not fire. You swing the rifle around wielding it by the barrel as a club.
Not quite, but the much simpler point that it is the flintlock that literally employs the flash in the pan. I was just trying to figure out whether you were intentionally using that disanalogy, or hadn't noticed it.
Why pay $20 for Hi-Tech?
We have a special introductory offer for our Extra Long Super Deluxe Lo-Tech nipple cleaners only $4.99 each! (plus $12.95 shipping and handling) ...
That's waiting on our permit to produce commercial quantities of non-petroleum fuel. Should be any day now.Might be interested if you throw in a pint of gullett flusher, of at least 100 proof.

Who You Calling A "Bear Knuckle Dragger"?!?Flintlock shooters are by nature very primitive and their evolution is based on the needs and understanding of their wild habitat. They don't have the IQ to understand such things as nipples (to them that only means a way to feed their cubs).
They do have the capability to understand the use of a stick, much like chimps. But it would be very cruel to confuse them with this level of technology. Shame on you.
