It's for a home project..
Here is a ordinary barrel, very fundamental:

And this is my idea:

So instead of filling up the touch hole with a connecting charge between each loads, i though about have some kind of ignition which makes a flame everytime i pull the trigger. (Or something that could ignite BP, like sparks, doesn't have to be a flame)
I need something tiny enough to be brought down, down the touch hole, and which also most be able to withstand the pressure of the BP-explosion.
I though about e-matches, but i think the threads would burn up after just a few shots, and i'm not sure if it could ignite a paper cartridge either, or even BP.
Btw, this is how the barrel look IRL:

My aim is just to make a simple muzzleloading pistol, but with more effort to make it work out great.
It would be like a modern muzzleloading pistol.
Basically it would look like this:

It's not exact, just a prototype, the trigger could, for example, be placed like a hammer instead, if that would work out better, and the speed loader has to be stored somewhere to. However. The magazine and speed loading mechanism isn't visible in the pic.
The main issue now is the ignition, so i appreciate solutions for it.
