    .

    .50cal muzzleloading caplock pistols are all very similar, but a flintlock pistol has a few different parts due to the ignition design.

    Here's a general schematic that you can use to learn what the various parts are:

    Now I lay me down to sleep
    A gun beside me is what I keep
    If I awake, and you're inside
    The coroner's van is your next ride
