Pretty cool. Thanks for posting.

Nice. His gun looks similar to the one I'm building.

I enjoy Cap and Ball's videos. Very interesting to watch.

Bad ass. These guns really are marvel’s of technology at their time.

While managing a piece of burning match out in the field can be a pain, there's something so appealing about the sheer simplicity of the matchlock system.

OMG, that was AWESOME! Thank you!

My only gripe is his match discipline. The loose end should always be under control; even more so if it too is lit. I also prefer to prime first as done in the order of arms. Unlike a flintlock, the half cock can’t slip. Otherwise, very nice.

I never prime my flintlocks until just prior to firing. Just always have done it that way.
