Howdy fellow THR pards:
This year I will be working on putting together a "bucket list" project, a video web series entitled "Black Powder Weapons of the Old West".
This series will be dedicated to the history of the use and handling of black powder weapons used by our forbears during the taming of the American West from around 1830 through the American Civil War, up to around the time of the Battle of the Little Big Horn. Thus, it will include the latter part of the mountain man flintlock era up through the early cartridge era.
I would like to invite any THR pards interested to participate in this production, via the submittal of any of your own diy hd videos demonstrating the proper handling, loading, and any relevant shooting tips for the black powder weapons of your choice.
I anticipate excerpts for the following weapons:
1. Flintrock and caplock kentucky/hawken rifles, shotguns, and pistols
2. Colt Paterson revolver
3. Colt Whitneyville-Walker revolving pistol
4. Colt "Dragoon" revolvers
5. Colt 1851 Navy
6. Colt 1860 Army
7. Various Confederate revolvers
8. Remington 1863 New Model Army
9. Remington 1866 revolving carbine
10. Various US/CSA issued muskets, rifles, and carbines from the Mexican War through the Battle of the Little Big Horn
11. Lever action rifles including 1860 Henry and 1866, 1873 Winchesters.
12. Colt SAA
There are a lot of great bp ml and cartridge weapons I want to include and I have access to only a few example repros thus this request for your assistance.
This is an unpaid gig, but if your video is chosen for inclusion in the web series, you will get a real IMDB credit as an associate producer and assistant director for the segment you film, and a thanks on the project title page.
Feel free to PM me if you are interested at all in the project and the weapon you would like to film/demonstate. I would like to keep each segment to about 15 minutes each, since there are so many interesting weapons to cover, even ones I did not list.
I can also be reached directly, via the email contact info listed on my own IMDB page in my signature below.
