Oooops! Wrong post... sorry.
If he did reload daily this would be one year of supplies if he carried 6 loaded chambersYes, Wild Bill did empty and reload daily, but he also made the mistake of sitting with his back to open access. No one is perfect!
Seems reasonable enough.If he did reload daily this would be one year of supplies if he carried 6 loaded chambers
2190 balls
2190 caps
4.6 lbs of powder
I have certainty had quite a few 22 misfires and it is a bit easier to cycle a wheel gun to the next round.I've been at the range many a time and watched people struggle with rounds jamming in their modern handgun..... I look over and say out loud 'ah, got a cap jam huh?' and I know they have no idea what I'm talking about Haha. Point is : if the operator does his/her due diligence AND its a quality gun they can all be reliable.
Humm Your statement is sideways.I carry a 1858 sheriffs for dogs and coyotes while hiking with the wife and little dogs.
Very dependable never jams hits where I aim it and circumvents firearm regulations not being a firearm and all.
Wouldn't pick it for a firefight unless I needed smoke cover to skedaddle.
State laws vary. But regardless of the law a disqualified person found carrying loaded would probably still find themselves explaining it to a judge because the police oftentimes don't even know the laws they enforce themselves.Humm Your statement is sideways.
Carrying a loaded BP anything unless hunting or at the range is considered carrying a firearm.
You discharge in a park,state land ect. You could end up paying a fine. Loosing the gun maybe jail.
Lots of BP sales the past 4 years which I figured guys couldn't pass a NICS . So the figured a BP gun in OK.
Bad juju unless your state is giving you 2ndamend relief, you may not even be able to own a muzzleloader.

Different world now of days, carrying a gun whatever type is and should always be a last and final choice for an altercation, if you carry the correct way no one knows what you have, situational awareness is your first line of defense. Never put yourself in a situation you cannot get out of. Have CCW carried for close to 25 years never been in a situation where I even thought about going to the gun. My past employment of 26 years has now mandated that I carry, not so much for me but my loved ones Made a bunch of enemies those years and not willing to take a chance in order to protect them.Well, I am 91 years old and have been all over the world. My co-workers called me "the walker" as I walked all around new places. I walked for hours at night in Istanbul, Turkey and in many states in the USA, Germany, Italy, France [during a terrorist period], Mexico City at 2:00 A.M. etc.. I was only threatened once. That was by a drunk American in Mexico. I am still comfortable without a weapon anywhere. Only once did I carry a revolver, when I was hired as security for nighttime at a large county fair in Idaho and I carried BP. I do carry a BP revolver while hunting. I think that often, when you carry, you open yourself up to becoming dead. Just my 70 years of travel and recreation including 22 years in the military. Polecat

well, I guess living in fear hasn’t the same appeal for me as for you. A person can talk themselves into being afraid of ladybugs if they want to.If we have to explain you will never get it..........
Tell that to some people in churches, synagogues, movie theaters, grocery stores, etc.If you dont use drugs and don't live in the hood ghetto you won't need a gun. If you have one your more likely to instigate trouble and end up shot. Here in Vermont the only people getting shot are drug dealers and their junkie buyers. Granted if one gets into my home I will blow his brains out.
I know we all probably have our unmentionable but does anyone carry bp revolver for the just incase? My problem with BP revolvers is I never had one that you could hit a big dog with at 15 yards. Or a small car.
Better check your state/local laws! The new Montana carry regs. Still have teeth.Not according to the sheriff the states attorney or the feds.
Not a firearm is legally that.
Would I wave it around or carry it somewhere obviously no go.......no same as any pistol.
Would I carry it on my hip in Montana.......absolutely.
Really don't think living in fear has anything to do with it, As I stated it's a different world out there today, I call it an insurance policy that hopefully I will never have to cash in on. REMEBER THE SAYING, ITS NOT IF IT WILL HAPPEN, BUT WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. Think of it this way your loved ones are laying at your feet dead because some A-HOLE killed them, if you were armed perhaps, you could have saved them. Not a situation I would want to live with the rest of my life.well, I guess living in fear hasn’t the same appeal for me as for you.

A full answer to what for whom exactly?Better check your state/local laws! The new Montana carry regs. Still have teeth.
Stating YOU can carry in Montana isn't a full answer.
