    anti-gun USPS

    No, it's a way to make fun of something and show how retarded it is while doing so.

    Small pistol primers as percussion caps?

    Dang, all you guys forget about my diy percussion cap kit on Amazon?

    anti-gun USPS

    Ive shipped firearms via USPS many times but won't anymore because of the added paperwork that opens me up to more possibilities to make a clerical error and get my license pulled under Bidens zErO tOlErAnCe PoLiCy. But I've had a few bad experiences. I typically deal with a young girl that...

    Talk about a rare one.

    As someone above mentioned, a Sharp's spring does work. I had to repair the stock around the top of the lock and you can kind of see in my first post where it was busted out. I patched in a piece of walnut and fit it perfectly. Still have to finish to match. Also was able to make a few...

    Talk about a rare one.

    He just wants a few extra as a display piece to go with the rifle, so he says. But he does want it in working condition anyhow. I'll just make the spring for the hammer as well.

    It's my understanding that this was the in-between to modern day breech loaders, hence the weird brass cartridge that it uses.

    Talk about a rare one.

    A guy brought in his 54 Burnside that he got at a pawnshop for $200. Needs a new hammer spring and he wants to know if I could make him 5 more rounds. I found the brass at Buffalo Arms and I'll lathe turn the bullets because they seem to be a ******* size. Pretty cool rifle.

    Rehardening frizzens - one size fits all? Musings for metallurgy masterminds....

    Anybody that's a tightwad or can't find kasenit, pulverized charcoal works just as well. It's pure carbon. I've case hardened with it many times.

    Scammers.............

    That doesn't change the fact that the site makes money from advertisers AND constantly sends messages asking for membership even after I nicely asked for them to stop asking.

    Scammers.............

    Then why do I have to fight constant pop up ads?

    Scammers.............

    Did the caller have an Indian accent? Because that's the first sign that it's fake.

    Scammers.............

    Yeah I'm getting real tired of being begged to upgrade to a membership. I've never paid to be on a forum in my life. I don't plan to start now.

    How i make my caps

    No, at the prices that filament are at its not really worth it to make my own.

    How i make my caps

    I know I've asked this before but I've sold a ton of these and nobody leaves a review. I have 3 reviews and one person left a bad one and didn't say what the problem was. That one bad review really lowers my rating. If you all have purchased from me, please leave a review because it really helps...

    How i make my caps

    It won't detonate just by pressing on it. It needs a sharp blow for that to happen. And it dries into a hard and solid puck.

    How i make my caps

    A little bit. I still mix the compound wetted with rubbing alcohol to get a thorough mix but then I let it dry. And there's no adding the duco into the mix. Just put a drop of the duco into the cap and then dump the dry powder on top of it and tamp it down, then let dry. It'll harden and look...
