First thanks to all this forum is truly a great resoruce, I just ordered my christmas present a Lyman Deerstalker L/H flintlock in 54 cal. i have experience with inlines and precussion ML's but this is a new world for me. this is what i was wondering?
[ul][*]I read that pyrodex P can be used as an ignition primer in flintlocks is this true? and if so does it work as well as 4F.[*]What do you do with a flintlock when done hunting for the day, (with other inlines and precussion guns removing the primer makes the gun safe) is there a safe way to do this with flintlocks or is it best to shoot it out.[/ul]
I am sure more questions will come as soon as my gun arrives but for now thanks. dan d
