Black powder beginner

[Shootinfly]

My son and I bought Pietta 1851 Navy’s and now we’re hooked. I have a New England Firearms Sidekick that I’ve had for 20 years but never fired (don’t ask). But my interest is renewed and I have questions.

Dont expect it to work out of the box.
Its called tuning a revolver. The medium woman called it a waste of money.
Showed her, it was less than $200 to get this one up and running great.

I used to own a whole bunch of them. They have all seemed to migrate to my son's room. Sure to become an issue if I ever find caps...
Questions, throw 'em out there. Even if'n I can't help you, somebody else might, an' mayhaps I get to learn somethin' also.

I'm new here also. Is there a list or something bout what's not kosher? Like a link to the Haram List? I was told earlier that we ain't s'posed to talk about sabots out of flinters to increase range, but I figgered it was jus' somebody ribbin' the new guy.

Generally speaking, this is a very traditional site...That is, cap and ball or minie type projectiles. One absolute is no discussion of modern arms (centerfires). There is a list of forum rules which spell it out. Traditional type inlines are okay to discuss, but none that take centerfire cartridges or similar set ups. No discussion of copper/non lead projectiles or plastic/nylon sabots, keeping in line with the traditional intent.

Yeah. Then I'm in the wrong place. I'm hardly likely to learn anything that'll be of use to me furthering my project. I'll jus' take my possibles bag an' sneak out the back.

Dont be so quick to judge....Lots to learn here, just not on modern stuff. I have been ML shooting for forty years and learn something new every day.
