How long before the warning on the barrel (which these don't have) did this happen ?

So basically all we know is that they are pre - S&W ??

Good stuff - thank you

As soon as I get a chance I'll take photos of the whole guns

Interesting. When I did a search I found more than one post on the web with this: Sharon used a spade, Douglas a Maltese cross, Green Mountain a capitol M I found a page listing inspectors marks and none of them were any of the above

I'm assuming 1 : 48 twist for both ??

Both were wall hanger decorations in a home, never shot, not a speck of burn on the wood around the nipples, perfect barrels. Bought up some estates stuff, probably overpaid a bit but I also scored an unshot Ruger Old Army along with primers and powder and reloading tools for unmentionable...

It's been stained a dark walnut and sealed - but now I'm stuck on the leather that will wrap around the base of the two forks of the antler to protect the finish of the gun I've never done leather work, would like to stitch this together with a baseball style stitching. Any good guides on...

Very nice What did you do for the toe ?

Something I got started on quite a while ago, gathered up the bits and pieces needed, but then life (and putting a bar into the game room) got in the way. https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/threads/need-a-thick-fork-of-antler-making-a-shooting-stick.134375/page-2 Anyway, got started on it...

And option is to search for vintage linen fishing line on ebay, I may even have a spool or two laying around.

Sold to Flint

Like I suspected, the answer is no - these poor guys are under under constant harassment by the state and ATF and won't even think about it. I really can't blame them I have a buyer who PMed me that doesn't care that it goes to his FFL, but you're in line in front of him - you in or out ??

Not yet but Hiddeninsmoke (great name!) has first dibs The function that I was at went way later than expected, I'll check tomorrow with the FFL if they'll mail directly to a person.

My 3 close ones won't (already asked) but I know one that might Late for a function right now. I'll check this afternoon

I sure am. Recognize the background in my avatar ? Was just there Wednesday

It's a cap and ball revolver, not a "Black Gun" that could be banned at some point Unless you plan on robbing a stagecoach with it, why care ?

Exactly And my 3 local FFLs will only ship it to another FFL (I guess to cover their own butts) Like I've said though I already took $25 off the price to reflect the FFL fee at your end and I'll pay for my end - so all it's costing you is the drive to pick it up.

Right, so I'm covering that cost both ways ($50 total)
