Do you just pick it all up and hold it to your shoulder or do you use a two hand hold?:D;)

Would you mind explaining the accouterments? What are the liquids, tubes, etc.?

The funnel in picture 3 looks downright ancient! :D
I love the powder measure on the arm that I assume lifts up and over the bore for dispensing.
And yeah, what's the funky looking blue stuff in the bottle. If it was pink I'd say it was Peptobismal... :D

In this picture, is that a muzzle attachement on the muzzle of your pistol?

I'm more than happy to answer all questions. In the top bottle is my patch lube. It is a water-soulable oil I make myself. In the bottom bottle is windshield washer stuff I use to clean the gun. The little white bottle is
WD-40 I use to oil it. Below that are Q-tips I use to wipe the pan out and
under the frizzen. The little tubes are for powder charges for the time-fire
matches at Friendship. You have 6 min. for 5 shots. The funnel is not old,
just used a lot. The Red powder measure does not swing over the barrel.
The thing on top of the barrel is called a "False Muzzle" It's what you load
thru. I can shoot all day and it takes about 5 min. or less to clean the pistol
at the range. Under the leather thing is caps, flints, patches, balls. All tools
to take the gun apart. Enough stuff for 300 shots. That is a small spotting
scope on the side but I really use a 20X Bushnell 60mm Spacemaster. On the
one side hangs my Flint stuff, knapping hammer, pick,screwdriver, pan brush.
This one stand is used for 4 different pistols. I'll try to make a short loading
video in the future. Thanks for the inquiry.

Oh must metion the time fire matchs again. You have 6 min for a Flintlock
pistol for 5 shots. Then you wait 5-10 min. and do it again. All matches are
10 shots on paper. Percussion matches are 5 min. for 5 shots. Revolvers are
a one single 10 min string for 10 shots. You better pray nothing goes wrong.
Wife does it in 3 min for her 5 shots percussion. Wish she moved that fast
cleaning the house. The National record is a perfect 100 score and 9 X's
in the timed fire percussion match. I think this was set back in 1962. The
timed fire matches really brings out the best in you. (or the worst)
