Title: Electronic igntion muzzle loader
Post by: FinsnFur on November 12, 2008, 09:01:00 AM
Anyone see that pistol they made on Weapon Masters? with the electronic ignition?

Pretty slick to say the least, and it gave it an average of 60 more feet per second. For a muzzle loader you'd think that would offer a considerably flatter trajectory.

The part I really liked, was they added two brace rods made of spring steel, protruding from the bottom of the pistol grip towards the back, which laid against the bottom of your forum when your arm was extended holding this thing. That puts all the weight of the pistol on your fore arm and elbow instead of your wrist. :confused:

purdy slick :eyebrownod:

I think a lot like the indian's did when they had flintlock's and percusssion came in.  They didn't want the percussion as you couldn't just pick one up off the ground like they could flint.  What happen's when you run out of electricity.  I have not seen the gun, does it use battery's, generator or jumper cables?

was that on this morning or last night ?  (i'm losing it  :holdon: )  I was watching it but didnt get to the end to see what he made. 

I've seen them electronic ignited rifles for sale, must be like the lighter type igniters run by battery.

The ignition source was fed by battery and was actually hanging from his belt, and wires ran up to the pistol. That way he could (his theory) hold his aiming arm straight with no muscle movement to pull the trigger, and ignite the load with his free hand.
