This is only the Pedersoli test fire. The original Bridesburg is in Part 2 but I can't find that one posted.

Re: Testshooting Pedersoli's new 1861 Springfield rifle musket vs an original Bridesburg
Well - it shouldn't have a rammer spring....the tang of the barrel seems too straight - the wrist of the stock not properly shaped - the buttplate isnt the right shape - i.e. the tang is too flat, the fold at the top too sharp, the contour and angle wrong - too much 'belly" between the trigger guard and lower barrel band...it seems no better than a Euroarms.David StoneComment

I've tried posting this a couple times; hopefully it works now. Test of 64 Bridesburg vs 55 Jaegerstuetzen Lorenz.
The impact of the bullets on the ballistics gel gave me some pause; I sometimes fail to remember that the lovely 1842 Springfield on my wall could inflict some terrible damage.
