TheCaptainWilliam Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 I still need ta name me a pair of Pistols an' a Blunderbuss. I need ta name them, an' who better ta ask than a slew of proven Buccaneers? Suggest away me lads an lasses! here are some pictures: My Pistols My Blunderbuss
Jonathan Hawks Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Well, Cap... I says Sally be a right fyne name fer yer Blunderbus. It be sea fairin fer sure. What be better then "Say hi ta Sally" Shoots anything that moves!!
William Brand Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 port an starboard fer yer pistols Seconded. Though, port wasn't adopted formally until the 1800s and then only by the U.S. Navy, so Larboard and Starboard might be more appropriate. Suggestions for the blunderbuss: The Big Blunder? Davy Jones? Thunderbuss? Nope, I got nothing on the blunderbuss. Sorry, Mate
TheCaptainWilliam Posted May 5, 2005 Author Posted May 5, 2005 Well thakee me friends, I didn't even think of it, but Larboard and Starboard are Terriffic Names! As fer me Blunderbuss Sally the Thunderbuss Is what I think I'll be usin. Thanks again me boys!
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Yeh! I gots me one a them blunderbusses me self I does I had a nice back sling made fer it and it hangs a tad heavy but she Oh that's right a name she is me deck scatterer and 'er name is "Meddle" cause she's so heavy! Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
Jonathan Hawks Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 I agree on the pistol names as well Cap. Fergal as it right. Ya can cross em to. But then ya be makin sure of whos who. Lol... Shoots anything that moves!!
Tudor MercWench Smith Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 Slightly off topic but . . . where did you get them (they gorgeous!) and how much did they put you out!!!?? I'm in the market, as it were . ..
CaptainCiaran Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 And, where did ye make yer pictures? That coastline is gorgeous! I see that ye play the concertina. Ye should give us a concert Captain William. Many fine places to do so. We could have a party, a dance, a singalong. Perhaps William Red Wake would allow ye to do so in the Tsunami Kate. Tis a great place to party! I'll buy the first round of drinks! I wonder if one of the most important steps on our journey is the one in which we throw away the map. -- Loreena McKennitt My fathers knew of wind and tide, and my blood is maritime. -- Stan Rogers I don't pretend to be captain weird.

Captain Jacob Badger Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 The blunderbuss should be 'The Admiral'.....An' the two pistols be 'Gilbert an' sullivan'......but then I'm strange that way..... Yes, it be pointy…..and ye be at the wrong side o’ it.
TheCaptainWilliam Posted May 8, 2005 Author Posted May 8, 2005 I got them from the website I ordered them from, my pics turned out REALLY crappy... sorry... As fer me concertina, I confess that I haven't played in quite a bit. Ya see, a LARPer (with anger problems) smashed it by hitting it on my side with a Latex weapon (I hate those F***ers they're like 2x4's when its winter. It sucks.). And that was back when I was starting, over a year ago... I'll try ta get me hands on one again. Har har har, I was never any good anyway. As fer the names, I'm so confused now, thanks for all your suggestions! You've wrecked my brain!!
Capt. Morgan Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 Er, and WHAT website didja order 'em from, mate? Good stuff, nonetheless...

TheCaptainWilliam Posted May 10, 2005 Author Posted May 10, 2005 Well, I ordered them from www.DeadMenTellNoTales.com I guess that I should say, in case I didn't already, that these are NON-firing replicas for my costume. I'm interested in firing flintlocks, and I can legally buy them in Pennsylvania, as long as they're muzzle loaders, even though I'm only 16, (I love PA ). The only problem is I'd have ta coerce me parents inta lettin me own em...
Capt. Morgan Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 Firing or non-firing, they're beauts, mate!

Jonathan Hawks Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 See, I gots me "Fore an Aft" fer me pistols. Ave one in the back of me trouse and front. Shoots anything that moves!!
Patrick Hand Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 The cool thing about "real" black powder guns...... even with No flint and powder (unloaded).... you still get hastled just as much as with Non-firing (or visa versa.....) But if you want to, you can fire them with a blank charge or with a live round..... (and they Look and feel..... just kinda "right"
