Re: Muzzleloaders, how to start? Where? What?



Thanks all.

Well, it started a few days a go, I was buying a old cape gun( my first BP gun), the dealer showed me a original German flintlock in the Blunderbuss style. Oh, my what a great gun!
The feel, the style, the quality, it all made me smile....and smile. Looking down the barrel, made me think of thick forest, stalking wild boar. Oh, these I have to try.

These has to be the ultimate hunting guns, as basic as it gets.
So, yes, the proses on getting on has started. The ultimate has to use a original one, but they are to "old" for that.
A modern made one, in the German style, Blunderbuss is what I like. Having only seen a few flintlocks I am bold in saying so, but they look so cool

However, how are the barrel and accuracy on a Blunderbuss?
When looking around for a flintlock, any tip on what to look for?

All I know is, I have to try these out. I will do as you say tinker, and go flint!

Have a good weekend all
