    Investarms Hawken hammer position

    I have an Investarms .50 cal Hawkin I purchased used at the local gunshop. It's in great condition and shoots very well. The issue I have is that when the hammer is at half **** it's too close to the nipple to place a cap on. Is it possible that someone removed the hammer and replaced it out of...

    My Kibler SMR arrived today

    Thank you for the explanation. This will be my first build and I have never done any carving. I do love the look of it though. I just may take advantage of the opportunity to get the carved version. Maybe someday I'll get up the nerve to try it myself.

    My Kibler SMR arrived today

    Black Powder Pocket Revolver

    .330 dia balls too big for Uberti 1849 Colt?

    I am having a little trouble finding round balls for my 31 cal Uberti 1849 Colt. I bought a box of off brand balls that were labled as .323 but many of them just drop right into the chambers. I measured them and many were .310". Can I just buy some 00 buck shot? It measures .330". Is this too...
