How about sticking your face so close to the cylinder?

Seems Colt made a few rifles similar to these, of course they were cap and ball if I recall correctly.

Putting your face near the cylinder was in issue with those.

It's got to be better than shooting a flintlock...

IIRC, they did put a shield on it so that a right hander's support arm would be protected from the cylinder gap blast.

I posted to let members know where they are available, I have not loaded or bought any ammo for it.

Ah, a shield.

I think it may be something rather interesting to own.

How much they go for?

Got the cash set aside for one of those.

Im gonna buy the first damn one I see, I bet that thing would be a grouse and quail hunting machine.

Also good for gofers.
