    1851 is getting ugly

    Have you looked at the position of the cylinder compared to the forcing cone maybe enough lead is being scraped off the ball to keep it from properly contacting the rifling in the barrel.

    I've screwed up....

    Alternatively you can screw in zerk fitting and pump it out with a grease gun. I haven’t had the pleasure of getting anything stuck yet besides some patches, but I saw someone on Youtube do the grease gun thing as a demonstration.

    New Mexico iron sights regulation.

    We’ve done the anything goes route in the past and it leads to extirpation and unsafe, unethical hunting. The Sangre De Christo Mountains in New Mexico are breathtakingly beautiful and were once almost completely devoid of wildlife due to market hunting. Hunting regulations in New Mexico are...

    Advice on welding and drilling hole

    Seems like it would be a lot better to drill and tap to a larger screw.

    I’ll be back

    There are pre-X everything and the old one is always better pre-war banjos and guitars, pre-whatever lighter Pedersoli SXS shotguns. Just checked my pre-Estes Goex and the labels aren’t perfect on them.
