    I haven't had any problems with the pins, they are a tight fit. I much rather remove the barrel to clean than risk damaging the stock. Best Ryan

    Yes, agreed, as I think we pick up traits from our heritage. I love the old rifles, the history, the heritage in general. I to had many ancestors in the Civil War, around five hundred on each side. It sounds like you have quite the ancestry also. Best Ryan

    I am in Redbluff, CA... we pretty much are limited to the big box stores, not many mom pop retailers. I will try to call around, because I find that most online vendors require a minimum order. One site was pushing 25lbs, believe me you, that would be great, but i can't afford that lol.. so I...

    I am sure there is a connection somewhere, my name is pretty unique, with most sharing a connection. My great grandfather, x 7 generations, Drury was his name, served in the French Indiana campaign, and again in the revolution. George Washington wrote of him in his personal journals. He was...

    I have actually heard of a similar technique, but they will submerge the barrel flash hole in a bucket of soapy water and pretty much use the rod as a hydraulic pump, pumping water into and out of the flash hole. I will give your technique a try, sounds much less messy 😉 Thank you for the...

    Hey good evening, and thank you for this. I tried this at the range, several times, unfortunately to no avail. I ordered a puller and the appropriate rod, should all be here by Thursday, pull the ball, clean and dry it out and hopefully will be back at the range Friday. Thats the plan at least...

    Good evening, and thank you for this information! Yeah, I think I am going to order some black powder, just not looking forward to Shipping 😞. Maybe order enough to make it worth while. Do you recommend 2 or 3f? Kinda hoping to use the same for both the main charge and pan. Best Ryan

    Thank you for this, much appreciated... I found that the ball is 1.5 inches from the flash hole. So sounds like what you are describing as the patented breech. How does one clean the flash chamber, as I dont see a way to pass a swab though the barrel. Best Ryan

    Browning bluing or rust bluing

    I just browned mine, using the plum brown from birch wood Casey. Its strait forward, and looks great, I love the finish, complements the stock perfectly. Durability, if you scratch a blueed finish rust could form, it may be noticeable. If you scratch a brown barrel, rust could form, but will...
