Go out and shoot a flintlock. That will cure your flinching.
I don't know how to put a "half smiley" in there, but there is some truthiness to this issue. Flintlocks, even good ones, have some interesting behaviors during "lock time." That's assuming you get ignition in the first place. But you learn to get very "zen" about the moment.
My personal issues from flinching come from wanting to see where the shots go, rather than any fear of recoil. I have the same problem with golf, but unlike shooting, I gave that stupid game up YEARS ago
