I would love to put on a flint type flash guard.
Last Sunday at the local shoot, I had just set the rear trigger and got ready to shoot offhand. As I raised the rifle up, it went off way too early, early enough that the pinky on my left hand got the full blast of the flint touch hole, ouch. :surrender: Since this rifle is a TC Hawken flinter the frizzen screw is attached from the backside of the lock. This keeps me from adding a traditional flash guard. Maybe I should just get a longer frizzen screw and put the guard on and then a nut to hold it in place. Maybe D/T another hole in the lock back plate and attach it that way.
What say you folks?
