. I couldn't think of a better person to show us these beautiful flintlock rifles. if I lived anywhere near there, I would be at rock island auction company all the time. I look at them more like a museum and everything is for sale. Keep up the great work Ethan.
A true work of art and craftsmanship Ethan. Thank You Kindly for taking the time to show us the beauty of this classical art! DaveyJO in Lancaster County Pennsylvania
Thanks for showing us these! If you happen to go back to RIA before Feb I have a gold inlaid Spanish percussion pistol there. You’re welcome to put hands on it.
An outstanding rifle! And a really good overview, those of us that live far away would never have such detailed views of these important historical pieces, so very many thanks for bringing these to us! Chris B.
The term "smooth rifle"is currently used to describe dual-purpose smoothbore muzzle loading long guns that incorporate rifle characteristics, including front and rear rifle-type open sights, thick-walled barrels, and rifle-style (versus fowler or musket-style) stock architecture.

Man Ian’s looking weird today.
Kidding, beautiful rifle, great presentation! One of the best BP muzzleloading channels.
Love seeing the beauty of the old originals!

Fascinating. The time it would have taken to create that rifle!
Nicely done. For some reason, I wasn't aware it was a smooth rifle even though I have Kindig's book.

that's nice and all, but that's not a rifle. you just said it's a smoothbore. it's not a rifle.
