Building 4 Bore Rifle #2

[randyt]

You know I wondered what happened, I was subscribed to your you tube and lost track. Glad there is sites like this and rumble

I got my 8 bore barrel last week. now I need to get some other projects out of the way so I can build it. With the breech plug of a 4 bore I am wondering how one might set it up to be a percussion rifle. would a nipple and drum arrangement be strong enough? I think a back action lock could be used without having to mill away part of the breech plug.

Don't know. I never built a percussion gun.

Bill, I’m going to build an Isaac Haines. I’m trying to follow your build of that rifle but man Rumble is a pain to navigate. Sometimes I can find the next video, sometimes not. I sure wish you wouldn’t have got kicked off YouTube.

But I will endeavor to persevere. Keep em coming.

I just realized there was something other than YouTube. So, I created an account on rumble to follow this. Very neat builds! I look forward to following along.

It is a bit tougher to find stuff on Rumble sometimes, but I am glad that I got kicked off You Tube. Many videos on You Tube are starting to have disclaimers now. People have to change the way they make the videos just to comply with all of their rules. I am not making recreations of historical artifacts for educational purposes only. I am making GUNS that are designed to KILL things. If you do videos that have anything to do with guns, You Tube is nothing but trouble. If you want to make videos about what color lipstick looks best with your beard or how super awesome communism is, then You Tube is perfect.

Due to my connection I'm unable to watch videos, it would be great to see some pictures. This is this the "Royal, no cheese" I recently built. The name came from pulp fiction when they are discussing what a 1/4 pounder is in Europe since they are on the metric system and don't know what a pound is. As you know a 1 inch ball is about 4oz or a 1/4 pounder. . .

Fun to think about, but the reality of pulling the trigger on a 4 bore isn't something I like.

It's really not that bad, it's a bit like walking up to Mike Tyson and asking him to punch you in the face, it's not for everyone but some of us enjoy it
