The allure of the BLUNDERBUSS was that it basically could shoot anything that would fit inside the bore. Broken chunks of metal, nails, coins, marbles, small rocks, creek gravel, and even a compressed Furbie. Glow in the dark projectiles might be cool too on the night shots. NEVER leave a gap between projectiles and the powder charge, whatever you shoot. Can turn gun barrel into a bomb. Watch out for ricochets on hard targets.

Great video, I live in Britain and happen to own a genuine 19 Century blunderbuss on which that is modelled. It has a brass barrel and is marked "Royal Mail" because it was issued to the postman of the time carrying mail on stage coaches. It has "Tower of London" proof marks because at some time in the late 19 Century it was converted from flintlock to percussion cap as they all were. My family "acquired" it when it fell off the back of a Royal Mail coach onto a road near the family home during a severe storm one dark night. Somehow we never got around to asking if the Royal Mail wanted their gun back, dunno why, must have slipped our memory.

Fun fact: The Blunderbuss or "Musketoon" was just a shortened musket with a flared barrel for easy loading. As mentioned they were made for riding on a moving vehicle. The flared muzzle didn't help with spread. It was just there to allow easier loading while being jostled on a carriage. Round ball fired out of these was pretty common. Scatter shot (shotgun loads) were adopted to help aim while firing from a moving/jostling carriage. Muskets like the Brown Bess were anywhere from .69 to .80 caliber. For reference the barrel of a 12ga is .71 caliber.

@@pacifistminigun3987 Pretty sure I’ve heard numerous guntubers mention that KZbin demonetizes or puts strikes against videos that show “gunsmithing” content. Things like assembling an AR upper/lower, building a gun from a parts kit, doing modifications, attaching accessories, or in this case the loading procedure for a black powder gun are some of the things they take issue with in the past couple years. Basically you can make content shooting it, the content just can’t have instructions about how to operate the gun or change it in any way. Pay attention to major gun KZbin channels, you’ll probably notice you NEVER see them doing these things. These people built up a huge following that I’m sure pays them well. Having a video demonetized hurts (the other reason they usually blur red images that might be mistaken for blood). Getting strikes against your channel and having it removed and your past videos deleted by KZbin would ruin them.

It really flared out from a similar size barrel as yours had back at the stock end to a real bell-shaped muzzle. Never got to see it fired, so you can imagine my delight when you popped up with one!

9:54 Wow the new GTA sure looks great!

[@AdvantureZach]

Where would we be without Scott and his love for recoil and giant bores? The fire that gun throws is amazing! 🔥

[@ianmaestas1885]

Awesome period piece! I would very much like to see more blunderbuss fun. More blunderbuss shenanigans please! A variety of different shot sizes maybe? 🤓🤓🤓😆

[@zanthimos]

As accurate as a sneeze, as dangerous as a dinosaur stampede. I like it!

[@m1xxx3r]

i love this big bore guns, not because they're big but because how satisfying is the delay between hammer *thunk* and powder ignition in slo-mo

[@Fireball7428]

Yeah, that sound feels oddly pleasant.

@@Fireball7428 You can feel the chemical reaction in your hands without getting them burnt. I get a similar sensation from holding Roman candles.

7:48 like little shooting stars. So pretty LOL

[@goldenwheeledbanshee9160]

Hell yeah! 7 bore anything is wicked. Scott u're a gifted shooter!

[@seriouslystupidbricks]

This is the best intro you have ever done. I've never heard or seen a joke to that effect, and it caught me off guard. I kept trying to guess what the punchline was going to be. Phenomenal job Scott! 😊

[@robertkbrooks951]

I own a Blunderbuss from the year 1700. it is a flintlock and it still functions. Nails ,chain and even marbles.

Rumor was Blackbeard put blackpowder in his rum. In the spirit of Blackbeard, Kentucky Ballistics has an entire line of chocolate sauces infused blackpowder. Delicious!

As a Canadian of a certain age, hearing a person call a store window mannequin "Jeff" brings back happy childhood memories 😅

I absolutely love how much the limo struggled on the mud.

@ronkostars4258 I mean when he get the limo? Did he do a video before with it??

That sound the striker makes in slow motion is incredible. It's almost like a bass string.

[@peterdavies4687]

Scott Id like to say a big Thank You to you. I often suffer from bouts of depression and you always seem to have the cure with your incredible sense of humour and of course your collection of stupidly big guns. You are a legend amongst men my friend. Thank You.

[@Onering80]

You gone and done it. Just when I think you have scraped the bottom of awesome you go and do this. 👏👏👏

[@dkajj]

Family legend.... one of my ancestors was the first man to be tried in the (not yet) US for shooting a neighbor with a blunderbuss for hunting on our land. I've heard different stories, but I like that one. Tried by Miles Standish.

[@hraefn1821]

So...was he convicted? XD

[@dkajj]

@hraefn1821 yes. John Billington. I heard hung, but KZbin says trial for other reasons, but 1st tried and 1st convicted either way. Also descended from him is Benedict Arnold 🤢. I just know from family lore it was a farming family that didn't like their right infringed upon.

[@darksu6947]

​@@dkajjDidn't they prove that Arnold wasn't a traitor after all or am I thinking of someone else?

[@dkajj]

@darksu6947 depends which field u put ur stock in, I suppose. He could have been a hero or a traitor, depending.

[@Ryyi23]

I have always loved blunderbusses! They have such a unique look and they essentially are a handheld cannon.

[@booshmcfadden7638]

My mom is calling Scott!? WTF!? That. Is... . . . . AWESOME!

[@spooky600]

The chronograph gag gets me every single time 🤣

[@Sman7290]

Gets me, too. I don't have a chronograph, so it kinda hurts a little bit.

[@Sequere-Nos]

My favorite gun quote "9mm destroys the body, .45 ACP destroys the soul, 10mm double stack destroys what's left."

[@TheChickenHouse]

Thanks for keeping us entertained Scott. Nice to have something to chuckle at once in awhile 👍
