The Backwoodsman's Institute presents: My Fusil DeChasse Trade Gun. In this video Scott shows his fusil dechasse and dicusses some history of trade guns on the frontier.
Great, informative video. My favorite reenacting gun, both for it's looks and versatility. Btw, and meaning no disrespect, the period correct pronunciation is "fewzee duh-chahsah."
This is a great video, I just got mine but have yet to shoot it because I have not received the round ball and bullet mold I just ordered from track of the wolf. The barrel on mine is 44 inches long and the muzzle measures out at .601 so I ordered .575 round ball. keep up the good work, very educational video
Nice video. I love the Fusil de Chasse. I built mine from a Pecatonica parts set. While the FdC may have been traded to the Indians, it is not regarded as a trade gun, i.e. a cheaply made gun manufactured specifically for trade to the Indian. It was a hunting gun - the gun of the French milice, and the common man.
