Re: On subject of smoothbore vs rifled felt recoil

Quote:

That is very interesting & a good firearm to judge the recoil effect I’d say ?

Do you have any photos ?

Sounds like a cool rifle/gun , I did many years back see a Greener like that & it was a hammerless as I remember !



Hello Sarg,
Photos? Well that was long enough ago that any pics were using a real film camera.....I will have to sort thru old photos to see.

Yes, the Greener was a hammerless action as well. Never did contact Greener to get historical info, more’s the pity.
Quite the spectacular display if it was fired at twilight.....looked like a Roman Candle going off.
I imagine that if one were hunting in dry brush with such a cannon that there would be a high probability of starting a wild fire.
