Firing blanks with Cream of Wheat. A neat trick I learned from Civil War reenactors to make the characteristic white smoke that modern powder doesn’t have.

The first failed take is also in the video, my brother doesn’t really know how Instagram works.

But the British will see where you are firing from! (Neat trick, hadn’t ever seen that before.)

I only just read about it yesterday when looking for good ways to fire blanks.

That Colt 1851 you have is cool, my favorite black powder firearm of all time.

I’m quite fond of it. I would have preferred one with a steel frame, but this one was super cheap at a pawn shop and looked like it had only been fired from one chamber.
