Can't disagree with a thing you said. But my point was to point out the ridiculous statement about rifles having ten times the range as muskets. |

I was done with this thread until the 10x was brought up. Then I had to put on my tweed jacket with the leather patches, light my pipe and bloviate about stuff I have only a vague idea about. So. If the musket is good up to 300 yards, and the flintlock is therefore good to 3000, we need to equip our Seal snipers with Pennsylvania longs. |

Exactly! The passage was full of….. stuff like that. :-) |

Hey, if it's on the Internet, it has to be true.

Since we are going down that road: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, contrary to what you have just seen, war is neither glamorous nor fun. There are no winners, only losers. There are no good wars, with the following exceptions: The American Revolution, World War II, and The Star Wars Trilogy. If you'd like to learn more about war, there's lots of books in your local library, many of them with cool gory pictures. -Bart Simpson |
