Ruger Old Army @#%$* cylinder OOOPS.

Seems I owe the forum an apology. I posted a comment about a certain contraband cylinder and got deleted. I knew that this particular item could not be bought, sold, or traded here but I didn't realize that it could not be discussed either. Sorry, I will seek knowledge of this item elsewhere and stick to the traditional here. Hope I didn't ruffle too many feathers.

Some folks likely lost feathers over it

Seems you can kind of get by with it in the "What did you do today" thread for premium members, but not in the regular forums.

It's a shame, I was looking forward to your posts.

Thanks Waarp8nt. I didn't really have any comments on the subject having never used it.....yet. I was looking for advice. I lost my BP mentor a few years ago and kinda' let it go. Now that I'm older and have more time I'm picking it back up. At one time I was doing the whole Buckskinning thing.

You might try on one of the cowboy forums or maybe the high road blackpowder forum. Good luck with your pursuits…

Great thought but we have our day in November. This weekend we remember and honor those fallen warriors who paid the ultimate price. We’ll be up at the cemetery paying tribute.

I had nightmares myself, oddly they had feathers, maybe I should stay off the sauce?

I am no purist though I can understand some discipline for a forum like this. ROA pretty well defies a category but its a Muzzle Loader by definition (or a chamber loader but then all BP revolvers are).

45D likes his cylinders (we won't mention what kind those are). But the basis is still a BP revolver. And those (ahem) different cylinders were part of the history. Kept a lot of otherwise fine guns in service with far more practical for SD.

We saw some modern BP targets a while back. Loved seeing them, eye opener to an area I did not know existed. All fun stuff.
