ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO BY ETHAN

This is another video from Ethan on a very rare and early British flintlock musket at RIA.

"We are not about to send American Boys 9 to 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian Boys ought to be doing for themselves."

Excellent video Ethan. Your passion for muzzle loading comes through very well, and your analysis is great.

The guy that wrote the description from the beginning must be a pretty cool guy.   ;D

I am the Lead Historian/Firearms Specialist at Rock Island Auction Co., but I am here out of my own personal interests in muzzle loading and history.

I hear he's a real nerd.  :P

All jokes aside, having already handled and described most of these items, its really interesting to get to hear Ethan's analysis. Like all of us, he has his own perspective, and that brings new life to these guns for me. It is a large part of what I enjoy about this forum and muzzle loading in general: sharing and learning from one another about our shared passion.

Thanks a lot, Seth, you are too kind. I'm happy my enthusiasm shows through. I couldn't agree more about the forum and muzzleloading community. I'm happy to see folks willing to share their knowledge with us on these forums and at events, it truly makes a difference and helps the community grow.
