I will be waxing the thread after the needles are attached. There is a method for tapering the thread prior to attaching the needles that can't be done with waxed thread.

It is for hand stitching leather.

I tried lennon also. No joy. Only European vendors

I am hoping one of you gentlemen or ladies can help me locate five cord unwaxed lenin thread. Waxes is available everywhere, but google is failing me. I am going to try the Al Stohlman tapering method, which requires unwaxed. Thanks for any help.

Thank you sir. Never would have guessed that.

No "K" in the SN. I think it looks good with the bare barreled. It reminds me a lot of the target gray color finish that Ruger uses. What's the purpose of the small screw at the breech end ahead of the tang? Clean out screw? Thanks for the interest and assistance.

It does say New Englander on the barrel. I will check the SN when I get home. Thanks.

50 Calibre. Barrel and lock in the white. Kit gun?

Used from October Country. Maybe not the deal of the century, but it was available, I wanted it and now it's mine. My phone takes crappy pics, but pics are required.

Paper revolver cartridges so it is handgun relates.

I am returning to the hobby after a few years absense and remember this as a great place to learn. Thanks for having me.

I can see the tip of the bar through the hole. It has to be something simple. I appreciate the help.

I am the original owner. It's been mañy years, but I swear I remember using the front. Anyhow I put some whiteout on the bar and it contacts the bar from the lock that touches the trigger, but will not release by the front trigger. Something is keeping it from traveling enough I guess.

Thanks for the welcome and quick response. I will check it out after work tomorrow and report my findings.

It's a pleasure to be aboard. I recently watched the Revenant and it made me think about jumping back into hunting with muzzleloaders. I broke out my old Dixie Ten Gauge Magnum double barrel and 50 cal Tennessee Mountain rifle to check them out and see about getting ship-shape and ordering...
