RE: old blackpowder guns

I was a member of a club when i lived in Bristol that specialised in older gun's and most people shot reproduction gun's not authentic antiques....partly because of there age(value) and partly because of there unknown condition.....black powder is much more volatile than propellant, it explodes when confined rather than burns really quickly...the pressure spike can be enormous and 200+ year old metallurgy can be tired if not flawed from the outset, people xray guns first if they want to shoot pukka oldies.

Nothing is fool proof for a sufficiently talented fool!!!!
