Looking for article titled "Learning to Flint"
« on: January 10, 2008, 05:46:35 PM »
Hi Everyone - I have a friend who is has purchased a flintlock and is starting to learn how to use it proficiently.  I recall an article that was printed some years ago in the Magazine "Blackpowder Huting" that was titled "Learning to Flint"  I am looking for a copy of this article so that I can send it to my friend. 

I recall the article being the most comprehensive and best written piece on the subject that I have read. 

I believe the name of the author was Ross Seyfried. 

If this article is on the web, I would appreciate a link to it.  If it is in print, I could provide my address.

Thanks Much.
