RE: Related video on derringers
Craig,
We have had a good number of Civil War encampments at Surratt House over the years - just had the 3rd U.S. Volunteer Infantry in July. They do black powder firing demonstrations, and I have heard that three shots per minute statistic given also, and some of the re-enactors can certainly do it. This past Saturday evening was movie night at the museum, and we showed The Red Badge of Courage with Audie Murphy. The up-close shots of him and others biting off the cartridge, loading the powder, etc. were very impressive. I don't know if Wes Harris is a member of this forum yet, but his specialty is weapons of this era - specifically the "Tools of the Assassins," which will soon be a book. Hope he sees this and chimes in. |
