Thread type and flint size on TVM early lancaster

[PA Prof]

Hi everyone,

Just got my .54 cal early lancaster in silver from TVM about two weeks ago. I actually held off opening the box for about a week since I had to go to the hospital for a diagnostic procedure with potentially scary outcome and it gave me something to look forward to after!

Few questions for those who know:
Anyone know the thread type of the range rod TVM sells? I'm guessing 8-32?
Diameter of the same rod?
And finally, which size of flint works with the large Siler lock they use?

I'm hoping to order a bunch of stuff from Track for it within the next few days. Any help is greatly appreciated. Can't wait to try this baby out.

I don't know the thread size of the range rod but the Tom Fuller flint size for your large Siler lock is 6/8 #Flint-Eng-6 from Track.

Did you mean 7/8" or 3/4" (6/8=3/4)?
