Pedersoli Charles Moore Flintlock Pistol
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- In this week’s video I’m shooting Pedersoli’s Charles Moore flintlock dueling pistol. This .45 caliber, flintlock pistol has an 11-inch barrel that is quite accurate, if you shoot it properly.
Justin at the Italian Firearms Group can hook you up with a Pedersoli retailer

Hey Mike, yesterday was my birthday and my wife surprised me with a Duelist1954 shirt, a Ribeye dinner, and a '51 Navy.. It was a great birthday, today I went to the BP club sporting my new shirt! Thanks for putting out some of the best content on UA-cam! Justin
Happy birthday Justin! Sounds like you had a great one.
You know you are beginning to have a lot of confidence in the quality of a persons video, when you give it a 'Thumbs Up" before you watch the video.
Mike;
Back in the mid 70s when I was about twelve, my folks gave me a .67 caliber CVA pistol kit for Christmas from Sears Robucks. Looking back, it was the best gift I ever received. I still have it today and looks very close to the British Sea Service pistol in your vid.
Ohhh that's a treasure. I hope you still get out and fire it now and again
How is the recoil from something like that?
Nice presentation of a cool pistol.
Love the videos that go over flinklocks! Mike this is awesome work as always. We all really enjoy your content. Sorry that your 2020 event was cancelled, this will still be a great piece for next year.
We need to bring dueling back
Lots of interesting information about how to get a proper grip on this and other flintlock models! Thank you 👍
Thank you for this review, Mike! The "Bad Guy's View" never gets old!
Great video Mike. I have always admired this pistol. I will be going to the range tomorrow to shoot my new Pedersoli percussion conversion Harpers Ferry pistol in .54 smoothbore. I would like to get the Moore .45 pistol in percussion next if I can find one to buy.
I like the set trigger feature. I was not aware of that. Unfortunately I already have too many similar pistols to justify this one. I do appreciate the history and tips you provide. Thanks Mike.
Thank you, an excellent video and gun. Learned something about holding a flintlock pistol.
nice looking pistol, very very cool. Pedersoli does excellent work
Great tip on choking up on the grip. I have a homemade matchlock that I made with a similar grip to your Charles Moore pistol and choking up on the grip definitely steadies the gun. I never would have thought of that.
To date, I haven't gotten around to pistol shooting. Choking up was a good idea. Thanks for passing that one along.
Great video Mike, the Pedersoli BP firearms to me are probably the best of the shelf replicas available, I have had great luck this summer with the Mortimer 12 gauge shooting black powder trap twice a week. The weather this week north of the border has also been fantastic.
Awesome videos. Ive learned so much from watching your stuff.
A man of honor. Treating Roy as a gentleman even with his history of being an out law renegade
Awesome video. Great information on the Charles Moore
Beautiful firearm.
Outstanding Mike!! I have the Pedersoli's Kentucky pistol. And man, is the hammer spring tight.
Anyway, always enjoy your videos!!
Great video. I always learn something new from your videos.
That had to be my favorite part of the video. The part at the end where you fired your shot and very cooly looked away while you put the pistol into the hoster, lol.
Great job Mike! You content ALWAYS delivers! Keep up the amazing work!
Your flintlock videos are my favorite
Top vid duelist, loving the period stuff. Hello from Australia and we love our BP firearm's..
Let here's talk about the Highlander, a steel pistol. I'm in the process of building one, a copy of my own Design. as there as rare as Hens teeth or Rocking Hours doo doo.
I purchased that pistol in percussion several years back. Out of the box, the tang did not fit the breech. The inletting of the tang and barrel was off as well. After correcting the hooked breech problem with files and fixing the bedding problems with Steel Bed, the pistol is a tack driver.
Considering the price, having those type of problems is unacceptable. The average shooter would not be able to make the repairs I did.
Great video Mike, cheers!
Nice video. I really enjoyed watching you shoot this pistol. I really like flintlocks.
Interesting comment on how to hold the pistol. I found that out for myself with my traditions kentucky pistol. Sort of like using a tyler t-grip on a smith and wesson.
Always a like for Mike!
Hello, I just received my first flintlock pistol from Dixie gunworks, I bought the traditions trapper. It’s a beauty for sure. Seems odd to me not much is talked about on flints, what type how to properly install them, now no flint was included with this gun. I’m kinda at a loss of what type to get and how to mount it the correct way, if you can help me out here I would appreciate it. Thanks for the great videos
Go to traditions website and ask them for their recommended flint size. I think it's 5/8"
Lol. rifling good sights set trigger = murder.
another good video mike! your videos are a treasure mike, thank you,,,,,,,,,,,
A vocabulary lesson 'besmirched". Love it!! Honor satisfied! :)
THX Mike !!
Jerry Miculek teaches the same grip for shooting modern revolvers.
Excellent video. I really enjoyed this one. Keep them coming.
Thank you Mike. Always like your Videos.
I'm actually enjoying this temperate weather just cool enough for a light jacket but pleasant. Funny you should mention pedersoli it would seem I have entered into the world of musketry with none other than a brown bess.
This pistol reminds me of the CVA Mountain pistol kit I built years ago. Grip shape & size appear similar. Mine was .50 cal & I used 350 grains of 3f GOEX.
350 grains! Just leave room to start the ball and then compress the powder. ;)
@@michaelpriest6242 oops! I meant 50 grains, sorry for the typo!!! 😁
Well -
I guess I can ruin the surprise !!!
I'm in the process of making 3 or 4 pistol loading stands.
I planned on sending one your way. As I have not seen you use one yet. Even with all the videos with the Queen Anne pistol.
So - I got you covered. Custom made one will be on its way.
Hopefully have them made by mid December.
Thanks! You'll be seeing mine again in another Queen Anne video, which will hit YT on Thursday morning. Looking forward to seeing yours.
Nice one. Thanks for shooting tip.
Fun vid Mike, thanks!
That's pretty good accuracy at 50 feet distance to be able to take out a honey dew melon in one shot with a flintlock single shot pistol. I used to do that kind of shooting with cap and ball revolvers that made 7 or 8 inch barrels but with a modern pistol that only has a 3 or 4 inch barrel like the average semi auto concealed carry piece that kind of distance would be very hard to do
Thanks for all your video's Great stuff
Always a great video, thank you so much !
Yet another great video showcasing a firearm we are usually not familiar with, thank-you!
If I may make one suggestion though, it would be helpful to me if you could display the piece for a longer period of time when you are introducing it. We get a few seconds and then it is gone from view or else it is being rapidly moved about. Perhaps ten or more seconds to take in the details while you are telling us about the piece? Thank-you again, I always go to your new videos when they show up and your older videos when I am researching new to me firearms.
@@cvcoco That works also. It was just a suggestion.
Nice gun!
Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic video! Thank you!
Nice presentation
I wish they would start putting the modern markings on the underside of the barrel.
Great video, thanks!
Wrong lock, when did they change it? This has the Kentucky rifle/pistol lock with the ultra hard to open frizzen. The older Charles Moore had that Dixie Pennsylvania or Dixie Cub lock. Those locks are fast and the frizzen fly open on them. Good video.
gr8 job. looks like a gr8 gun
Thank You 👍
the all metal hardware looks so much better than the brass IMHO and it looks better non blued
Cool video, awesome shootin iron.
With that style of handle, the barrel is in line with the arm bone.
Nice Vid !!!
I'm Owner of a false pair of Charles Moore.. Match One Rifled and Percussion , the other Silex Smooth Bore. on thing is interesting Steel is Inox an very easy to clean.
One other point is during European championship a Hungarian shooter made 100/100 in Cominazzo disciplin with a charles Moore Match
Really nice work i'm follow you :) And i've begiin a UA-cam Vid in french not many things for now.. due to an unhealthy périod.. hope more vids soon
Good luck with your UA-cam channel.
@@duelist1954
Thank's my Friend..
You should know by now that Evil Roy is no gentleman.😎
So _that's_ how to get a Pedersoli!
Ha Mike, Talk to you Pedersoli dealer and see if he will give you a 20ga side by side double flintlock shotgun to do a review on shooting round ball and shot please. Cheers John
Hi Mike. Very good video. Like everyone you do. I like that gun, but on percussion. In fllintlock syistem I prefer a Kentucky pistol. I have a Kentucky from Ardesa (Traditions) and a Siber from Dikar (CVA). Both are made here, in Spain, and are percussion and in 45 caliber. But maybe I would buy a Charles Moore from Pedersoli, as it would make a good combination with my 54 "Hawken Rocky Mountain" rifle, also from Pedersoli. Greetings from Spain.
RIP Evil Roy!
Nice !!! really enjoy your video's .. and i lean some history as well.. at least that is what i tell the wife ..
Looks a lot like the Harper's Ferry pistol but with sights and rifling.
Did you ever try the Pedersoli "le Page" pistol. that one is much more ballanced. Even I, and I am realy bad with a pistol; can hit a target with that..... or the underhammer boot pistol . uhhh that one is sooo nice......
Haven't tried them yet.
IF I was into flintlocks I'd have to look into a "plum blue" finish for the barrel and a bright "silver" finish for the lock.....Otherwise I really enjoyed this video!
Making melon balls with a round ball. Yes!
The safety nazis probably had a spazm but when you showed the buissnes end of that thing it gives a true concept of just how big that bore really is
I would love to have that kind of flintlock... what kind of cost does it run Mike ?
Heads up - your title has a typo in it: "Moofre" instead of "Moore".
Good catch!!! Thank you! I fixed it.
I'm getting a 17th century Poland vibe from that
Being that I used to be an MP I’ve always had a soft spot for Harpers Ferry flintlocks.
👌
A more elegant weapon. For a more civilized age.
Precisely.
Sir, I hope I am not the only one who would like to know, but: What is a waterproof pan? Oh, and that 'Ding" at the end of the video is almost exactly the pitch that my ears ring all the time. sad!
Water proof locks have the priming pan that is not connected to the pan fences, so water can't seep under the lid of the priming pan.
@@duelist1954 Thank you , Sir!
how cool, bummer about the meet
I miss the high gloss finish on all guns
What were the ones that were carried by the mountain men what style model for the most part
What state is Dualist Den in. It looks like I'm looking outdoors.
Does that belt you have on have sometime of holster or did you just tuck it under the belt ?
Definitely more of a target pistol than a dueling pistol.
Dear Sir:I want to know,Do you have any books published
Just one bad novel
Pretty sure Arthur Morgan is about to punch him and wear his hat
Does anyone make a Kydex deep carry for these?
Mike, where did that shirt come from?
I made it 40 years ago using a Fort DeChartres kit I bought from an ad in Muzzleloader magazine. I remember it because it was the first piece of 18th century clothing I made., and I still have it, but I needed to replace the buttons and put a new collar on it this year.
Whats a waterproof pan ?
I wouldn't call these dueling pistols, they're definitely target guns. My black percussion one in .36 is exceptionally accurate with *five* grains of powder.
What is a waterproof pan?
It is a flintlock where the priming pan has been cut away from the surrounding bolsters so water can't pool around the frizzen and pan cover. Look at this lock, and you'll see what I mean. cdn.rockislandauction.com/dev_cdn/66/3277.jpg?cachebust=2019-09-19T20:19:06.000Z
Why 4F and not 3F?
It is just a little faster. I have primed with 2Fg with no difficulties.
I really like your videos but I've sent you a message on your facebook page and on you website and never received a response!! it's been about 3 weeks! WHY?
kevin sprague Kevin, I try to answer all my mail. If you are not a friend of mine on Facebook, FB puts your message in an area that mostly sequesters spam, so, I may not realize your real message is in there. I’m not sure why I didn’t get your message from the website. But I’ll look for it. Or, just send your question to my email at mike.beliveau@hotmail.com
kevin sprague By the way, between emails, UA-cam comments and FaceBook messages, I get 150 pieces of mail each day...I get behind sometimes.
Does anyone know the weight of this little beauty?
Just under three pounds
Towsends
I don't think that they carry these. I think Dixie Gun Works can get one for you.
