Title: Gunners Mate
Post by: R.J.Bruce on August 07, 2019, 06:27:28 AM

With all the talk lately about hangfires and dry balls, I was wondering how many members have, and use, davec2's Gunners Mate flintlock multi-tool??

The bore-sized collars, which center all of the tools; especially the ball drill, and the ball screw, seem like a very intelligent design that should work extremely well.

Any thoughts??

Don't know this tool. Can you post pictures and who markets them and price?

Incredible tool. I have one set up for both my .50 and my .69.
Taylor has one for his 16 bore Joseph Lang Rifle.

I am still waiting to see one in .30, .32 or .36 caliber, to fit my flintlocks.

Dave’s tool is brilliant, and mine goes with me whenever I go shooting. Well worth buying. Like a longrifle Swiss Army knife. God Bless, Marc
