Some halfstock muzzleloaders have a wedge key to hold the barrel to the forestock but don't have a hooked breech. They have a solid breech with a tang screw holding the tang onto the wrist. Were these guns designed to remove the barrel wedge key and the tang screw to remove the barrel to clean it after shooting? Does it damage the tang screw threads in the wrist if the screw is removed often to clean the barrel? Can a barrel be easily reinstalled if it has a solid breech and a tang screw?
