that's pretty damn fuddtastic
seriously, that's cool. i'm sure a NCstar would hold up fine behind the light recoil that will have

Call me stupid, but fwd assist on a smoke pole? Wouldn't that just make the primer go off
I'd worry less about the scope and more about the mounts. I cracked 2 sets of mounts/rings on a M/L before I learned my lesson (I'm a little slow, just ask around). I put a set of heavy steel mounts like these on about 9 years ago and haven't had a problem since. I have a Nikon pro staff scope that has held up well for many years under the punishment of a M/L and pyrodex abuse. I actually shoot my M/L probably more than most. When stationed in Charleston it was all I hunted with on base and all I use at Ft. Gordon now, also usually take 2 dedicated M/L trips a year to other states. Put a light coat of non-petroleum based grease (like the kind used to clean muzzleloaders) on the bottom of it to help protect from corrosion. |

You think a one piece Armalite mount would hold up? I don't know anything about ML

1. Sweet 2. OK, but still... You smack the FA, and should the FP happen to hit the primer = Bang with a M/L. Probably not any more risk than on a regular rifle, you just get the added benefit of cleaning out your drawers in a big blue smoke cloud. You think a one piece Armalite mount would hold up? I don't know anything about ML
Shouldn't be a problem. I have a lot of M/L experience, feel free to IM me if you have specific questions. I'm happy to help......except for maybe being there for the test fire

Somehow I bet strycnine has a PSE crossbow upper for his AR's too.
Hell for no other reason the the bolts have a sharp point end to them...you know just like a KNIFE!! 
Just ribbing ya' stryc. The ML AR is pretty cool. I would still like to see a video of you w/ the 'rabbit police'. You all decked out in the latest mil-spec camo, vest gloves, bellacava, a monster 2~24x87 scope & the ML AR. 7mm |

That would give you enough ignition power to ignite those preformed 50 grain pellets. Makes things a lot easier if you are not a BP enthusiast and just want to hunt with it. You don't have to measure the powder charge, just drop in two of those pellets for a 100 grain charge.

I just went out and did the test fire
. It appears to have decent recoil with 100gr of Pyrodex pellets. I love the smell of black powder. I'll try to do a small video today if I can find my tri-pod. How do you add a video? http://s42.photobucket.com/albums/e333/strycnine/?action=view¤t=VIDEO0016.mp4 |

I assume that is a normal AR lower? Would that not still be considered a Title I firearm, rather than a non-firearm/unregulated like muzzleloaders are?
It's pretty neat either way.
