Is anyone willing to speculate that there might still be government caches of Britisharms in good useable condition in Libya or some other mid-east countries or what we are seeing is just odds and ends that private individuals have stashed away for personal use. Whatever the case I would bet the ammo they are using is the click-bang stuff. I have never bought any of it but was given a small amount some time ago. I learned to use it similar to shooting my flintlock. Just hold your sight picture steady until the whole "ignition process" runs it's course! It was very inaccurate but was good enough for 100 yards or so.
