Hello,

That article dis have a nice video overview of the black powder musket given by the museum.  It would be a good thing to show in a hight school history class.  The images of the few shells they show are quite good as well, especially the Read.

This artillery display at the Charleston museum was discussed on a prior thread:

You can get one of our forumites impression of the display and museum.
Best,
Carl
