Tagged and waiting. Thanks for the content,most on this subject are decades into it and are speaking to "like level of experience " peers. It's nice to have an "EDUCATED" but still,let's figure this out as we go along and here's what i learned since I last spoke to you.
I appreciate that! That is the impression I want to portray, there are way more qualified people than me to speak on such matters. I am just passionate about the subject and happy to learn alongside.
He's not a beginner and has some knowledge of firelocks, about like most of the citizen volunteers in the Revolution who marched out to face the British regulars.
looks fine to me bud, not an expert in revolutionary drill. Flinch locks just take practice to not flinch. Whatever that means for you, do that. If I develop a flinch from 3.5" 2.5 OZ magnum 12ga loads, I'll go back to something in the .22 cal department shoot it off the bench till I'm good on that again, then go back to the shoulder breaker from the bench, mentally telling my self that it's the 22LR or 5.56 or whatever, then work through that at the bench till the flinch is gone, then back to off hand or whatever position. For me, bench work isolated variables when you're trying to work on them. More muscles involved in the position = more variables not isolated, with standing off hand being the "worst". You might have a different method, but it looks like you have been improving. Master a rock lock with a magnum load, as far as perfect fundamentals every time(misfires will snitch on you), then you will have perfect fundamentals with anything modern ghetto blaster.
