Default RE: Shooting the Flintlock Today

I take my rifle apart each time and clean it with very hot soap/water combination, then use a hair dryer to dry out the small parts and warm up the barrel. Then everything gets oiled.

yeoman, (man just had a flashback to my Navy daze lol),
I must admit that I wasn't wearingear defenders at the time of this shoot. I just don't find theML's that loud. Or maybe I'm deafer than I thought. I'll put them on next session, although it is something that I will have to become accustomed to.

You know, it's funny, but I tend to feel / sense when a deer is in the area. Secondly I see them and generally last is to hear them. Maybe it's my other senses compensating for poor hearing????

head,
And a peep sight might help my eyes. Going to order one tonight. Maybe throw a GPR in there as well. The wife isn't looking.My excuse is one of my son's is lefthanded and needs his own Flinter.

Thanks guy's!!!

I've learned a bunch on this forum and it greatly appreciated.
