Featured Replies

Are you now suggesting that we use a musket for HD so we don't get sued? Okay okay I had to I'm sorry :icon_lol:

So, is there a delay from the time you pull the trigger to the time it actually fires? If you get close enough, I guess they only get one shot.

Not so funny. When blackpowder guns were coming back into the vogue in the late 60s early 70s they were unregulated in NJ just like most other places. Some guy bought a BP revolver and used it to pull a hold up and....that's how BP came to be regulated in NJ.

So, is there a delay from the time you pull the trigger to the time it actually fires?

 

If it's a flintlock there is a short delay. If its percussion there is no discernable delay.

Lol, you could be on to something! :icon_e_biggrin:

Someone actually had the opportunity to have a Bayonet on there and they blew it.

I think it's crazy what some people will attempt....I mean really a musket is more than enough for someone to feel "threatened" and respond accordingly.

Usually, but that's why muzzle loaders have so much character.

That's funny. They must have laughed at them because it looks like they left with their heads down feeling embarrassed and moneyless.

I know of at least one bank robbery that was done with a Paitnball gun.. At the time everyone was saying "Shotgun Shotgun Shotgun"..i took one look at the picture and said....Nope Paintball gun...to be Specific, I rattled off the make and model, then went out to my truck and brought it in so they could see it in comparison to the pics. On the BP Issue if anyone is familiar with "Gunkid" ( Real name John Melvin Davis of Internet Infamy) he's been running around since his recent release from the Custodu of the Federal penal System talking about how he is going to "Develop" a reliable double-action cap and ball pistol that he, as a convicted felon would be able to carry... For some reason he gets all cheesed off when we start taking bets on how long it'll be before he shoots himself...again.
