I like Reprocussion, and I like Dragoons. I appreciated the coverage of the improvements to the cylinder stop. Haven't seen that explained elsewhere. You make me wish for a late model Dragoon of my own.
Love the Reprocussion series and loved this video. I'm sorry to hear they are so much harder to make but I watched this video here and on YouTube to add that one extra view for your metrics.
I'm a very big fan of this series. I don't know much about black powder, but the history is fantastic. Please keep this going, it makes me want to try them out on the range.
Loved the episode, love repercussion. Hoping you'll cover at least the 1861 Springfield and maybe even the earlier Flintlocks/Long rifles (Kentucky and Pennsylvania rifles)
