I've been wanting one of these for a looong time but they are always out of stock or discontinued but I regularly check gunbroker to see if one pops up and finally I came across this one. I ended up getting into a bidding war with somebody else so I paid a bit more than I wanted but at least I own one now. Pretty nifty on the swing out barrel design and should be fun to mess around with. It's a .31 caliber smoothbore for anyone that's not familiar with them. It would be pretty easy to make one and I think that'll be my next project.

I don't even bother with 10's every gun I own has been converted to 11's the only revolver i still own is the first gun I ever built a CVA walker and I can't hold it any more even 2 handed! All that being said I shoot with a bunch of tight a**es who won't stock up on supplies and have made a nipple for each of their rifles so they can shoot 10's when they can't find 11's they want to keep buying a tin and a pound at a time I will never understand:doh:

Omg, some things ya can't fix . . .
 
the breech face nipple thing looked funky and i wondered if it took a musket cap but apparently its a regular nipple...
 
Just fired it into my testfire drum for the first time with 7 grains of triple 7 and got 497fps. It's a fun little thing.
