Expérience de mousquet à silex colonial

Aperçu
The experience starts with a hands-on overview of the firearm technology in the American colonial era. Your instructor has 35+ years experience in building, collecting, restoring, and using historic weapons.

You will learn not only what typical small arms of the 18th century were like, but also why they were designed the way they were, what they were capable of and what they were not capable of.

After a safety orientation, we'll walk out to our rustic shooting range where you'll get to learn the basics of how to load a colonial-style flintlock musket like the militia did over two centuries ago, then see how accurately you can fire it by shooting at a target.

Group size is limited to four.

My girlfriend Mary and I had an absolute blast at Pete's Colonial Flintlock Musket Experience with Historical Shooting Inc.! Pete's deep knowledge of colonial history made us feel like we were stepping back in time. He shared fascinating stories about the era. History that is not common knowledge and expanded to firearms and the different techniques used in their development over time. The history regarding Roger's Rangers, the Boston Massacre and how the revolution took place making the experience even richer. Learning to fire black powder muskets was thrilling! Pete’s expert guidance and patience made it easy and safe for everyone. We learned thexsteps and commands and even learned to load and fire them quickly by the end of the day. His friendly, engaging demeanor ensured we felt comfortable and had fun throughout the session. We loved every moment and can’t wait to come back with friends to put more holes in King George. If you’re looking for an unforgettable, hands-on history lesson, this is it. Highly recommended!

This was an amazing experience, from start to finish! Pete made every step clear, and kept each moment rooted in history. His deep knowledge of lore enriched our time, and his attention to detail made me feel safe throughout. Firing an 18th century Brown Bess at a portrait of King George, all while listening to stories of the Revolutionary War was something I didn’t even know was on my bucket list, but now I think it should be on everyone’s! Definitely worth the trip!

Loved it. The host was friendly, engaging and knowledgeable regarding the history of the musket and other similar weapons. Was pleased we got to fire 10 shots each. Really made history come alive. Great for history buffs or people who like to try new things. Would 100% do it again.
