Here is my Nock, built by Jess Melot from TRS. This is a real attention getter at rendezvous. I shoot mine with 40 grs. of 3f and a .490 ball. It doesn't really kick that bad, but it is a very heavy gun. It does scare the heck out of me after I fire it because all the barrels go off at once, or at least they are supposed to. There is always that nagging thought that maybe one of them didn't go off and is just waiting to blow your hand off if you load it too soon. I've aways made sure that there are seven holes accounted for before I started to load it again. When loading I always make sure that I really pay attention, because it is very easy to either miss charging a barrel or there is always the possibility of double charging one. Finally,
cleaning it is a pain! The barrel assembly comes apart easily, but you still have to clean seven barrels.
