We were at the shooting range firing some black powder! This Video shows my friend shooting the .75cal Brown Bess Flintlock. Note the delay between the trigger pull and the actual shot.

  • That delay of the trigger pull to the actual shot is because your shooting it on a foggy day. you have moist powder.

  • Sweet, I hope to see you on the field when you get across the US to down here. Are you moving into North Carolina or South Carolina

  • Well like I said I am not doing them at all yet. Wont happen till I move back east. But I will probably be doing Southern Campaings. My friends and I are planning on doing a Loyalist Highlander impression, a regiment raised by a Jacobite officer exile who is seeking a pardon and a restoration in titles and lands. (This is based on documented fact.) Felt it was a little told story and how the Loyalist Highlanders would have rather been fighting the Brits but just wanted to go home.

  • That is awsome! Are you doing Northern Campaigns or Southern Campaigns for RevWar?

  • Im a ACW and Scottish Jacobite reenactor. No Rev War in my part of the state. Looking forward to moving back east so I can do F&I and Rev War.

  • Oh, it's all good. Are you with the 33rd Regiment or another regiment over there?

  • Nope. Sorry. Im in California.

  • Yep, I do agree with you SC. By the way, weren't you at Walnut Grove a couple of weekends ago?

  • Yeah more of a push than an actual kick wouldnt you say?

  • I live fired a friends musket just yesterday. A lot of people say it "kick's like a mule!" Nah, it only has a little kick to it.
