I went to the range Saturday with a friend. It was trying to rain all the time so I was having problems with the pan but I kept wiping it out with alcohol each time I had fired the TC flint lock. We decided to move from the 25 yard range to the 100 yard range. I ran a few TC #13 patches down the barrel to remove the FFFg I had burned and while wiping the pan I felt a sharp pain and started bleeding quite a bit. I looked at my finger and the blood was flowing pretty good. I thought I had cut it real bad. I put one of my cleaning patches on the cut to slow the blood down and we moved to the 100 yard range. After about 20 minutes I decided to take the patch off and see how bad I had cut my self. This is not the first time I had been cut real bad I once cut the end of 3 fingers off with a table saw working construction. I pulled off the patch and found out I had taken out a “SQUARE” chunk of skin about 1/8” x 1/8” and about the same deep. It sure bleed a lot and Dang those flints are sharp.
