    FOR SALE Kentucky pistol

    Does the hammer have good spring tension when cocking? If so, Try a shorter nipple and see if that helps.. It doesn’t appear the nipple is screwed completely in , in the pic without the green cap..🤷‍♂️

    FOR SALE Kentucky pistol

    As mentioned loosen the lock and see if it holds at full & half **** positions.. If not remove the lock and look for areas that the metal is contacting the wood.. The trigger maybe inlet a little too deeply causing an issue as well..🤷‍♂️

    Longrifle sling?

    Look up finger weaving….😎 This one’s on a bag the strap is made from hemp cordage. Simple to do if your fingers have decent dexterity… Just a suggestion.👍

    Read my patch...

    If the gun has been shot for over a decade one would think the sharp edge of the rifling or muzzle would not be an issue… Is it possible the patch material is old and just being slightly cut while loading…🤷‍♂️ Try using additional lube on the patch that may help as well.

    Does wasp nest catch fire when shot?

    Also it helps protect against powder being dampened from heavy saturated lubed patch and I think it also provides an additional seal giving the gun a little more bang for your Buck…

    Another advantage too the smoothbore side.. Of course a .54 rifle will kill a squirrel as well..👍
