I believe you are thinking of the Hagley museum. It's not far at all from me but I have never got around to going.

I'm going to ask the same question to you, someone here asked me a couple of years ago on the same subject. How much is your left hand worth to you?

I was setting up my new 58 pietta when I noticed one of the two cylinders it came with has no proofs marks on it whatsoever....:confused: any ideas on this one fellas.

Yup it's NIB, cycled it twice and pulled the cylinder on it to inspect the bore but that's it. What it looks like is three rotating lines in the barrel where the bluing got stripped off or never made it in the first place, at first I thought it was just some missed grease but I put a patch...

I just got in a new remmie in the other day from cabelas and while looking it over I found the bore is kinda boogerd and want to exchange it, but cabelas website says bp guns are non returnable. Been doing business with them for some years now and have always been treated very well, but this...

Yep sockets work great. made one for my Rifle and fitted a cheap chicom Allen key on it for leverage

May you all have a very merry Christmas i feel ya on the weather,here in PA it feels like spring .the shrubs by my barn are starting to BLOOM:confused:

no its your only option for a holster. there are more then a few folks out there making c&b holsters, but i carry my '60 in that same triple k holster around the farm and its been nothing but awsome the only thing i did to mine was put a piece of latigo cord loop on the lower strap and hooked it...

Have been looking for a smoothie ,what were you thinking on the 1849?

Have not tried it myself but was reading a magazine article on the subject some time ago and the author used a 44 or 45 cal inverted gas check to seal off the cylinder mouth.

Coyote nailed it .....at least for me. I've carried both open and closed toe holster and closed toe wins. I was a caretaker on a small farm and a revolver went with almost everywhere, an I learned real quick what worked and what didn't . The full flap is my favorite but east coast summers unlike...

My 50 cal long rifle is for hunting and plain ol fun My c&b is my working gun on the farm, from keeping foxes away from the chicken coop, snakes outta the wood pile and to deter other 2 legged critters I'm carrying a 60 at the moment but I have found that the remmies are much much better...

It's a 50 cal 42" bbl with a slow twist but yeah I dont expect much of anything resembling a uniform pattern just kinda felt like putting a dent in this jar of shot As for a Smoothbore I would love a sxs but all I've seen are way to spendy Rodwha you read my mind. I was thinking about...
