WHO SHOT WHOM
« on: February 01, 2013, 08:18:45 PM »
Was hunting near the boundary of Shiloh Park in Tennessee back about 1973, when I dug this artifact.  Please keep in mind that not all of the battlefield was not then now is it now  on the National Park.  I do not break the law.  So, I dug this 1816 flintlock musket which had been hit (I think) in the barrel by either a bullet or piece of shrapnel.  In the photo I have placed a .69 caliber musket ball for reference to the dent in the musket barrel.  This artifact was passed along to be in a museum in Tennessee.
