rdfs:label	Flash pan
rdfs:comment	The flash pan or priming pan is a small receptacle for priming powder, found next to the touch hole on muzzleloading guns. Flash pans are found on gonnes, matchlocks, wheellocks, snaplocks, snaphances, and flintlocks. The matchlock used a slow-burning wick which is pressed into the flash pan which set off the powder. Flash pan technology was obsolete when the caplock mechanism was invented, which used a percussion cap stricken by the hammer that produced sparks which were led into the barrel by the opening the cap was attached to.
