    Bore light

    Thanks to all who replied. Mine now works, thank you Jethro 224 but after reading all the replies and seeing the word junk multiple times I think I will explore some of the alternatives mentioned. I want something reliable to use when looking at used guns.

    Bore light

    Trouble is there are no batteries in it. It was included with some other items I bought on ebay.

    Bore light

    I have what I believe is a CVA drop-in bore light. I have no instructions for it and it does not work. Does anyone have or know the battery size and assembly instructions? It is a brass "barrel" with a knurled knob at one end that can be turned into or out of the brass "barrel". The other end...

    Pedersoli Barrel

    Any opinions out there on whether or not a Pedersoli Pennsylvania .45cal barrel needs to be "shot in" or polished with steel wool or scotchbrite before best accuracy is achieved.

    Pedersoli trigger problem

    Thanks to all for your replies. Special thanks for the link to the info on double triggers. I am relatively new to BP so that info was very welcome. Good advice on following the manual however, I did not get one with the rifle and I can't figure out how to find one on the Pedersoli site...

    Pedersoli trigger problem

    I recently acquired a Pedersoli 45 cal Pennsylvania rifle. It looks brand new and the guy I got it from said that he bought it several years ago but had never fired it because he couldn't get the set triggers to work. I know very little about the mechanics of triggers however the rifle was such...

    Mowrey rifle

    That pic is great. It will help me get this thing back together and functioning. I appreciate the help. I love the look and feel of the rifle and look forward to shooting it. Mine is also marked Olney Texas and is 54 caliber. The bore looks good and the barrel is browned with only very minor...

    Mowrey rifle

    I have recently acquired a non-working Mowrey rifle as part of a deal. I removed the brass sideplate and discovered the large horseshoe shaped spring is loose in the lock. I would like to locate someone who could repair the lock and return the rifle to shooting condition. Any suggestions would...

    Mowry

    I am new to the forum but also have a Mowrey rifle in .54cal marked Olney, Texas. I just purchased the rifle at a show about 3 weeks ago and it seemed to work fine. I was getting ready today to take it to the range on Saturday and all of a sudden the trigger went limp and the hammer had no...
