Powder bottle model ZOUAVE BRASS, muzzleloader

The arms dealer WH e.K. offers:Powder flask model TEXAS, muzzleloaderPowder flasks, also known as powder horns or powder bottles, were used for storing black powder (gunpowder). From these containers, the black powder was filled as a propellant charge into the barrel of a muzzleloader. Powder flasks are not only used for storing propellant powder but also for measuring a specific amount of powder. For this purpose, there is a volumetric dosing device in the neck of the flask, where a slider separates a part of the neck from the rest of the flask. By sealing the flask opening with the thumb and simultaneously pressing an external button connected to the slider, a quantity of powder is brought into the front part of the flask neck during the subsequent tilting motion, where the flask opening points downwards. After releasing the slider button, the storage chamber of the flask is separated from the partial quantity of powder in the neck by the slider. This allows the shooter to introduce the now contained amount of powder in the neck through the muzzle of the barrel into the weapon. The neck of the flask serves as a filling spout. Powder flasks are prohibited at almost all shooting ranges, because there is a risk that glowing residues in the barrel could cause an ignition when loading. Since black powder is mass-explosion hazardous, serious accidents due to the explosion of the powder flask can occur. Robustly crafted powder flask based on a historical model total length with filling spout approx. 22 cm brass threaded head spring locking mechanism * Used with possible corresponding traces. * Take advantage of the opportunity to view in the store.
