crow Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Well it seems like Christmas in April it does as I just purchased a box of noise makers , an in that collection there two Zanotti flintlocks in 50 cal . They are very ornate and they are registered as 1768 models . Does anyone know anything about Zanotti pistols ? I can't seem to find a lot of info on them , but I do know that Zanotti makes high end shotguns any info would be greatly appreciated . They have hand carved stocks and they have a lot of silver and gold inlay right beautiful they are. :) Lord above please send a dove with wings as sharp as razors , to cuts the throats of them there blokes what sells bad booze to sailors ..

callenish gunner Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 if shooters you want ' em to be then do you want 'em as noise-makers or weapons ....for just a noise maker start with 15-20 grains and bench fire them see if that gives you the sound you want then go up a few grains at a time until you are no higher than 40-45 should be max or you could also write to zanotti and see what they recommend as the max load Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
