Love the, "vivid imagination" of B.P. world. The "historical?" part of B.P. revolvers is also a lot of fun. Of course, as a southerner who was trained to ride and shoot-as we all were, I've been around guns all my life.
However, I've only been around percussion revolvers for the last few years.
A few weeks ago, while at the range, I was going back and forth between my B.P's and cartridge revolvers. I shot up a box of 50 with a '73 clone and realized how the papar punchin' without all the "trouble, smoke, bad caps, slow loading etc" was just simply not as interesting. The difficulty of getting one of these ol' smokepoles to fire is part of the allure, along with the "history" part.
Doc, I'm not connected to St. Leo, just live in the area, know people who work in various areas of the school, and a few students.
