    What is your barrel length choice?

    Mine is 34 in barrel. I once saw a picture of a woman standing on cinder blocks to load her rifle from the bench and I told myself I would never own a rifle that would force me to do that. :redface:

    Wrong 1862 pocket

    When I check Texas Jack website, they have 2 model of the 1862, one is the streamlined pocket police which looks like the 1862 navy. The other is the pocket navy, which looks like the 1851 navy. They only offer the pocket navy in 5 1/2 and 6 1/2 inch barrel. The one I got has 4 1/2 barrel.

    Wrong 1862 pocket

    Based on Duelist54 video on the 1849 pocket, I order the 1862 police pocket 4 1/2 in barrel from Texas Jack Outfitter since it was in .36. I didn't get the one I wanted. DSC08520 by Nemovir, I think I got the 1862 pocket navy. I don't think they make them anymore. I think I should keep it.

    What I read is 1 pound tallow, 1 pound paraffin wax, 1/2 pound beeswax. I have 1 pound beeswax packages, why do I need the paraffin as well? Isn't beeswax a better wax then the paraffin?
