      I wonder how many barns burned down because of that dangerous mouse trap besides the people that accidentally shot themselves in the face with it. This one should never be used by someone that doesn't know anything about firearms, Shawn is a professional so he knows it's dangerous. I'd plug that barrel and just use it for display.

    I hope you read this Shawn! I fell asleep with your videos playing on my tv. It made me dream about that I met you at your place, it seemed I made you so happy when I told you that I've seen all of your videos. 😄
    You had a family and relative gathering and I got to meet some of them. Kind of feels like I know you now! 😁
    Anyway, I know it was just a dream but it was so weird and fun to dream a so detailed dream about someone I don't really know..
    One of your relatives asked me something about what I did in "garbage garden" but I don't think that place even exists 😆
    Anyway I thought this would bring you at least some joy knowing that you've become something big and affecting people all around the world.🐀

    The percussion cap you're using is too big, that's a musket cap, it looks like you need a #10 or #11 size cap, it should be snug on the nipple, not loose and flopping around.
