Topic: Flintlock guns firing?

Does anyone have ideas on how to do this? Its different from normal muzzle flashes as there is a ton of smoke and fire comes from the lock as well as the muzzle. I have Sony Vegas 8 and Gimp.

I would recommend heading to detonationfilms.com and downloading a free gun flash effect.  Tutorials on how to integrate them in your film are also on the site.

When animating flintlock guns there is a delay in the time you pull the trigger and when the gun actually fires. Also the is a lot more smoke. I would play around with the look and amount of smoke until it looks right.
