Thanks, that's good to know, I've had to bend that little sucker back a few times over the years, last time I cringed a bit waiting for it to finally snap, think I'll give them a call and see what they can do for me, I have a couple of these but prefer my older one, seems to be made of thicker brass sheet than the newer ones.
Yep. Fingers. I've tried several types of cappers and in the end considering the time and aggravation involved I always come up with fingers working the best for me. The 12 star capper by Guns of the West has worked the best for me but by the time I load the capper and then still have to fiddle with some the caps anyway I'm better off with fingers. The inline cappers I've found to be worse than useless. Just MPO.
Well considering that their made for a cap and ball pistol.... they work like crap on a side lock!
I got them with the idea of using them on revolvers. Disappointed. Muskets are no problem for fingers. This is Florida. No need for gloves. I give all the caps a good hard seat with a little stick.
