The TC Patriot is considered to be of a historic shape for a pistol.
The TC Scout on the other hand was considered by the owner of the Forum to be too modern owing to its in line ignition system.
Yes, we know.
The Cap & Ball revolvers use a similar system but there is no denying that they were used from the 1830's thru 1865.
There is no recognized proof that a pistol like the Scout was widely sold or used during that period.

Really? No kidding? Are you serious? I thought it might be because the Scout is so ugly or that maybe I had not hit the "Add Post" button before going to lunch.
No worries -- I will simply ask over at The High Road. I wish the thread would simply have been closed so I could copy and paste it over there. Thanks for getting back to me.

Box lock actions used in the cap and ball revolvers are hardly "In lines" and date back to the flintlock days as a style of action. Most of the "muff pistols" had such actions. The Scout is a modern non-tradional design. But never was an in-line. My Wurflein muzzleloader built about 1860, has such an action and is an "in line" because it uses a striker that acts like a firing pin and runs forward to strike the percussion cap.
