Doak, your time and skills are valuable to us. Because of your creation, my ROA will be every bit as reliable with 777 as a modern, cartridge revolver.
That makes all the difference in the world when carrying my ROA as a backup to my TC Renegade while hunting deer and hogs with BP. During BP season, I'm not allowed to carry any cartridge firearm, not even as a backup.
So----I need the ROA to be as reliable as the Redhawk .44 mag. I'm betting my life that, should the .50 smokepole fail to stop a big hog, the ROA will keep porky from dining on my ample haunches.
Yep, pigs will eat you. An old girlfirend of mine had an uncle (farmer) who had a heart attack while feeding his hogs. By the time his family found him, the pigs had eaten his lower half nearly to the bone.
And these are domestic piggies, not feral hogs.
Your contribution to the world of ROA shooters is huge. We are grateful for your creation.
Bask in our appreciation, because you deserve it.
I seem to have seen a primer capsule made for a TC sidelock rifle, but NEVER for a C&B revolver.
You have made the unavailable, available. We are forever in your debt.
When I get mine, I plan on giving them a good workout, prior to hunting with them.
That way, I can make sure there aren't any defects in the material before I trust my hide to it.
I absolutely trust your workmanship.
I do not, and never have, trust any material not to have defects in it.
After all, the raw material comes from steel mills that are run by people and subject to human error.
BTW, you may have just created your own cottage industry/niche market. You seem to have the market cornered. That's a good position to be in.
If you can, I would seek patent/copyright protection for your design.
