World Championships underway

The Cap and Ball YouTube channel has videos of the competition. Results at MLAIC.org, but it's a little slow.

That one guy announcing the winners is the guy that does all of those videos using his revolvers. Maybe I missed it but they didn't mention anything about what manufacturers or specific types of guns they were shooting.

It depends on the event. As an example, the repro revolvers are mostly the Hege Remington and FWB Rogers & Spencer. Single-shot percussion pistol is dominated by the FWB Underhammer, or the equivalent Baunkircher or Dedinski guns. Flintlock? Hege-Manton pistols are preferred if you can get them, but the
Pedersoli guns are doing well.

Many of the target rifles are custom-made, just like the originals.

I'll add that Balzas Nemeth is busier than a one-armed paperhanger. And doing well with it.

That FWB R&S and the Hege Remingtons (Uberti?) just dominate competition shooting at the highest level, year after year.

He does way more than just revolvers. That is only one of the things he does in his awesome videos. IMHO, it's the best black powder channel on YouTube. Nothing else even holds a flame. What a gentleman he is!
