The following gentlemen were most helpful to those wanting to shoot the old muskets.  And they were busy with cleaning and loading!

 

Alman's Shooter Show: Musket Fire is FUN

OK, I know this may not be everyone's cup of tea.   But, musket fire using black powder is pretty cool.  I don't want to do it!   But it sure was fun to watch.  

If you are wondering what is burning out of the muzzle, it is the black powder that is still burning as it propels through the barrel. 

And the smoke is pretty cool, too.
