ught Vent liner for Queen Anne repro

[WBROWN]

Good mornin' all,
I recently bought a Pedersoli repro Queen Anne Pistol. It does not have a touch hole liner, only a touch hole (round barrel).
How difficult would it be to install a liner in a round barrel?
Would there be enough metal left to allow me to file the liner to the contour of the barrel?
I've installed liners on Octagon tubes , but never on a round barrel.

Thank you,
Y.M.H.S.

Zonie had a post a few years ago about making a liner for a Queen Anne. You should be able to find it with a search using his username.

Edit: I tried finding it for ya, but search won't work from my phone.

Claude...search doesn't work very well from the PDA format. I had to switch to the normal format to be able to click through to search results.

Thanx Zonie for the info.
Sounds like an easy, as well as an inexpensive fix.

Well Zonie,
I took your advice and made/ installed the liner as you described.
Despite a couple of setbacks ( broken drill bits in the barrel, and screw itself) it worked out well. Albiet a tad high and slighty left of center.
Ignition is fast! Although a bit finicky, I find myself needing to prick the vent regulary for reliable shots. I was using 3f for priming as well.
Overall I am quite pleased with the results.
I reckon I'll tackle the trigger next.
Thank you for the guidence my friend.
