I agree, and that the Charlesville repros are worse. I'll have to look for that video. I've always wondered how they managed to make it so heavy and poorly balanced. And then the whole thing with repro bayonettes for them is a mess too.
We (my boss) bought a repro French Marine musket with year end money - and that was pretty good - granted its almost a fusil in length. We also got a Long Land repro that way - might have been a rework by Kit Ravenshear.
