Thank you ever so much Nidhin ... you are great
Now i have to find out what do they mean with the word straight ... probably referring to the format of the musket ??
When i get home, with better conditions, i will take some decent pictures and post the whole musket in either this or a new thread, for the apreciation of the members who like these things. Maybe some of them know the meanning for "straight".
Again many thanks for your immediate and precious help
Fernando

Default "Straight"

Hello Fernando,

My opinion would be "straight" refering to the way it shoots rather than the style, I would consider the style to be a visual given, but the rifles abilty to fire straight an unknown until it has been tested and marked so, as many old rifles would not always fire dead straight. Just a thought...
