Prop Story
When Captain Jack Sparrow is marooned on a desert island by his mutinous first
mate, Barbossa, he’s left with a flintlock pistol with one shot left. But by the
thrilling climax of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, the
shot’s still there, and Barbossa finds himself looking down the barrel of Jack’s
flintlock and hoping the powder’s wet.
In the “Golden Age” of piracy, no self-respecting buccaneer went anywhere
without his flintlock. The forerunners of modern gun technology, flintlocks were
developed in the early 1600s and remained in use for nearly 300 years. The
technology is simple. The lock – the method for exploding the charge – is made
of flint. When struck against a piece of steel (the “frizzen”), the flint
creates sparks which explode the gunpowder packed in the barrel, propelling a
lead ball at the target – in this case, Jack’s ghostly adversary.
For filming, Captain Jack Sparrow’s flintlock was built according to exact
historical models and specifications. Master Replicas is proud to offer this
hero prop of Jack Sparrow’s flintlock recreated with painstaking care to take
you back to buccaneering days of old.
