My new Pedersoli Frontier 54 came with a lead in the jaw and one in the goody pouch. It does not void any warranty that I can find on-line....
DRY FIRING however - does!

All but one of my flinters came with the hole drilled in them in addition to the turnscrew slot.The trick to getting the flint to stay put is to make sure that it is tight enough. I use leather to hold all my flints, but I also make sure that it is tight. In all my flint guns, I have drilled a hole through the bulbous top of the screw that is big enough to take a small Allen wrench as a "Tommy Bar". I found that I can tighten the lock as tight as I can with a screw driver, put in the Tommy Bar and get two more full turns. Make the Allen Wrench HC by cutting off the smaller angle and epoxy it into a piece of horn or bone. No more loose flints.
LOL, I use my leather punch for the hole so the flint sits back against the screw.I like leather. As said, cut it into long "O" to fold over the flint and cut a small "O" in the middle of the wrap. This will let the lead sit further back for a better grip. I also oil the leather to prevent it from possible burning from sparks or the flash from the pan.
