    Wow, does this picture bring back memories. Every time I smell the sulfer smell of bp I remember the damp wet mornings and the heavy sulfer smell in the air from the coal fires in the village below us. You sure are enjoying the fruits of your labor. Now, for a spot o tea and a scone! (or a aberdeen roll and lemon curd!) nekshot
    Look twice, shoot once.

    neckshot,This was the first test firing of the 16 gauge Flintlock.I just had a few shots and hit a few clays,then went on to shoot my AYA side by side,my eldest Grandson (age 27) borrowed my Miroku O/U,he is new to shooting but keeps on beating me (beginers luck).As for the Tea I always take a Flask to keep out this cold climate.No food though her in doors would,nt like it if I did,nt eat my Roast beef roast potatoes and yorkshire pudding when I get home.
    Regards

    Col4570,
    Another great photo! Thanks for posting.

    Some pretty interesting things in the pic. Expected are the pan/vent flash and the billowing smoke way out in front. But the most interesting, to me at least, is the linear, focused, concentrated plasma stream extending from and inline with the bore!
    Trust but verify the honeyguide

    fouronesix, The strange thing is that the flame can be barely seen at the time or is so brief.The camera shot must have been exactly on time to capture the moment.
    Regards.
