A New Video From Mick. The Hunting Pouch and Powder Horn.

Not everything Mick uses here is period correct, but there are period alternatives to some items. The jag, which in the 18th century was called a worm for instance. The modern jag used cloth to clean the bore, where as the worm was used with toe. But the worm can also use a strip of cloth to do the same job. The screw is used to extract a round ball if it should for some reason become stuck in the bore. But Mick explains the uses for his gear pretty well, so I will not bother going any further. If you have any questions, just ask.
