    An elegant weapon for a more civilized age.

      It was more civilized when someone could be challenged to a duel for disrespect.

    Rice pattie prone aka slovic squat requires an Adidas track suit for best results 😋

    Looks like you are shooting a British short land pattern Musket, ( Brown Bess) . And you must be over 6 ft. tall considering the short land pattern musket was 58 ins. in length. You appear to tower above the barrel.

    I found your channel from the recommendation from “I love muzzle loading”, I’ve been into this sport for many years, but what I did not know was my wife and I went to high school with your mom at Garland High School, it’s a small world.

    WELL DONE!!!
    I would like to see a follow up video on loading from those positions.
    I see as the next progression along the lines of that type of training.
    Did you say you’re in the DFW area?

    • @FlintlockOperator

      Loading from behind cover is definitely a topic I'll be covering this fall. I am in the DFW area.

    What model of flintlock were you using in your video?

      2nd model short land pattern British service musket. AKA, the "Brown Bess".

    With all due respect, Why are the new videos on 18 cen. Woodrunnig open up with the hosts shooting on the run. It reminds me of Mark Bakers videos

    • @FlintlockOperator
      @FlintlockOperator  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I like using shots of shooting on the run because it's more dynamic and is different from how I've seen most people shoot.

    What kind/brand of flintlock is that? And did you make your own powder horn?

    • @FlintlockOperator
      @FlintlockOperator  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a 2nd model brown bess from Veteran Arms. I highly recommend them. The powder horn I've had since i was a kid and have done some repairs and modifications to it.

    I guess with a single shot weapon having your elbow up does not matter. With a semiautomatic its important to have your elbow down to help control recoil.

    • @Real11BangBang
      @Real11BangBang ปีที่แล้ว +7

      when you're shooting a flintlock having an elbow up is almost a must. The reason being is you don't hold it like you hold an AR-15 or an AK. It is designed to be fired from the actual shoulder. Not the chest.
