Kentucky Percussion Pistol Fun

[Rhyno]

This gun has reignited my passion for black powder. This is my first muzzloading pistol. I have a couple of BP revolvers, but this is a blast. Everyone, myself included, enjoys ramming a ball down the muzzle and lighting this sucker off. I also enjoy the easier clean-up than the revolvers. By the way, it’s a Traditions 50. Here are a few pics and a short video…

Great Pics.

Currently working on a Kentuckyish scratch build myself.

Looking at pictures they don't look very big.

But in person they are some long suckers.

They really are a pretty good size. Post some pics of your project!

Nice set. I’m hoping my next pistol will be a flintlock.
