If you aren't part of the solution, then you obviously weren't properly dissolved.

I so need to show up at the next turkey shoot with one of those.. Heads will explode. Now I'm regretting selling that extra flint lock I had.

It's a cap and ball muzzle loaded rifle not a flintlock, however a flintlock would really be amusing to own.Bruenor wrote:I so need to show up at the next turkey shoot with one of those.. Heads will explode. Now I'm regretting selling that extra flint lock I had.
Interestingly that "assault rifle" can be purchased mail order and shipped directly to your house, no NICS check, no FFL needed.

Re: OMG This assault rifle needs to be banned!
My ignorance of muzzle loaders is evident.
That "assault rifle" is more accurately called a caplock rifle when compared to a flintlock rifle.
From Wikipedia:

From Wikipedia:
The caplock mechanism, percussion lock, or cap and ball was the successor of the flintlock mechanism in firearm technology, and used a percussion cap struck by the hammer to set off the main charge, rather than using a piece of flint to strike a steel frizzen.
