His musket survives, which is built from a variety of parts. It has a bore of .75 caliber, a locally made iron ramrod, some imported or re-used fittings, and it had a lug on the underside of the barrel near the muzzle to attach a bayonet.

Clearly an 80% ghost gun assault weapon.

When I lived in Mass.,I metal detected the whole property and found what I thought was a .75 musket ball. I didn’t think that caliber was legit. So, I looked it up.

Sure enough...
