its a nice little thing but probably only for very small game because of the ligth load. in the wilderness it would be much better to have the adapter for using the 12 ga gun as a muzzle loader like this one here

the 209 shotgun primer may be hard to get but black powder and caps were probably two things available also in the smallest store in africa anytime. I would prefer a muzzle loader adapter for the little cap if it works. Beause I only know the traditional muzzle loader there is one question: if you load such an in-line muzzle loader der powder can maybe trickle down the primer hole into the action when you load it or do this not happen?

still in use in east india

Poachers prepare a 'bharwa' or muzzle loader gun, prior to heading out for a hunt in Nagaland, India. They first fill in the gun powder or 'baarood' into the front of the rifle, then a wad of cotton wool followed by chharras or round bullets (sort of like ball bearings) which get fired from the gun. The poacher shows us how the gun shoots, and it gives quite a kick-back or recoil!
