    Sounds a lot better with a real bullet instead of the only black powder shots during reenactment. Most veterans during the Napoleonic wars must have had hearing problems. Standing near the big cannons during our battles already is impressive just imagine the real stuff.

      especially with so many guns firing, imagine the horror.
      not during the battle itself, if you survived the hailstrom of shots in the battlefiled, you would be in that bad of a shape because of the adrelanine rush, but afterwards? horrible

    I like these a little more than my Pedersoli Cavallerie IX carbine, but they're very handy and deliver a pretty good amount of power for their size. A lot of fun to shoot.

    The usual, for the era, 'variable' powder charge (depending on how much you put in the pan) & a ball/barrel fit like a pea in a bucket(!) Astounding how anything could be hit beyond 25 metres.

      honestly, the musket ball is better for hunting peasants... you can also kill their livestock with it better than with the shot.
      that being said, I personally like lead BB sized shot for Pheasant... but that's something else entirely.
