I tried that too, a year ago,,but some guy kept posting about how T/C arms,, are really truthfully traditional :? ,,gadds,,,,,stainless steel flintlocks and all
wWOW really mmmm i would also say that many of them are as well.
if we drop stainless steel then surly modern high straight steal should also be wrong as original barrels were iron .
Maybe its the coil spring used to fire TC locks .
Well that coil springs been around a long ,long time and used to fire different ignitions . In the early 1700 coil springs were used to fire inline ignition flintlocks that I know of for sure. These are not to be confused with modern inline muzzle loading weapons in any way .
Depending on your view there are many different levels of traditional .
For some any side lock fits the bill. For others the entire weapon must be in a close resemblance of a common or what that person perceives as common weapon .
Still others feel only an exact copy right down to the shape of the flash pan works and still others exclude all percussion systems
For me any weapon that carries a ignition system true to form IE side lock , slap lock , inline flintlock ignitions , Mule ear
is a traditional weapon .
The ignore option is a sad deal , even sadder when a person needs to use it
