Tiny priming flasks??

[TDM]

Well, the parts are all gathered. Just need to get them assembled..... maybe this year

That would be a neat build.

I'll be pushing my skills set that's, for sure.!

On your Sykes flask (either or original or replica) the top unscrews for easy filling.

That is a very nice piece of plunder.

Saw one on EBay $90

 

[Century to late]

I picked up a couple a few years ago. Probably came from India. Gave one away but never tried or filled the other. Most of my guns use caps.

I use one for flintlock priming powder.

That is possibly the smallest flask I've seen. Really cute. Must have one. Thanks for posting. And thanks for the Link above.

I need another pan primmer like I need another hole in the head. But my arms getting twisted!

I have one. I'm sure it's a reproduction but it works well. I use it to prime my wheellock pistol which requires very fine black powder (Null "B" or hand ground with a mortar and pestle)

Hand two of the cheap knockoffs. They both leaked 4F pretty bad around the shutoff.

To ‘test’ for leakage, put powder in the flask, cover the end of the spout with a finger or something and shake the flask. If powder is in the spout….

I have seen these at Track of the Wolf.

I have one like that also. I use it to pour a measured charge into my .25 under hammer pistol. It is handy and Much easier then trying to measure much quicker then trying to measure a tiny amount of powder and trying to pour it down the barrel with out spilling it every where!

These are made in India but they do a no e job. Works well

Just bought one from Veterans Arms. First one leaked, the next one was fine.

Thanks for sharing the link, I just grabbed one also. Says he has sold 10 in the last 24 hours, so maybe he will give you commission on advertising.
