Did Paradox guns exist before cartridge guns
      09/06/20 10:50 PM

Im just wondering if there was a muzzle loading Ball and Shot gun. If not a specific rifled design, were there any intended to be used like we think of as a Paradox?

It seems like the idea would have been just as good before cartridges. Ive shot plenty of large bore smooth bore guns (think Brown Bess, etc), typically those were never meant to be accurate beyond "minute of man" at say 70yds; but at the same time there were pretty amazing muzzle loading rifles of the same period (the Jaegers and Bakers comes to mind).

I realize "Paradox" and "Explora" are company names; but the concept is sound whether cartridge or muzzle loaded

If it's not custom, it's just borrowed
