I think I have beat you to it! I got one today and it,s ok apart from some pitting- yep the usual the guy has been using mineral based oil to clean it with :shake: If the truth be known I think I paid to much :hmm: but it did come with bags of wads (which,l go in the cartridge gun), 1lb of black, 150 odd caps and 20lb plus of 71/2 shot (just right for woodcock).
The nipples were seized in! Soon got them out. The original nipple key has been messed with and needs reshaping, 10 minute job at work :wink:
The ram rod is really thin! So I have donated a carbon arrow to the cause to save the original. Just a small amount of machining and I,ll be set but in the mean time I,ll give her a work out tomorrow. The main thing is it fits perfectly :thumbsup:
 
I get mine in the New Year, but mine is unused and comes with all the gear i.e. flasks and cleaning stuff :) At least I know how to look after it lol.

Happy Xmas
 
Hope you enjoy yours. Mine has been a trial in getting it to go bang every time I pull the trigger, but I think i've got it worked out. There was a post a year or two ago about a modification to the lower Barrel flash channel that was supposed to fix the problems with failures to fire. I've not done mine yet. Might try a search and see about it. The original article was published in "Muzzle Blasts" IIRC.

Good Luck, enjoy.
