Would anyone be able to show me a photo of the set up with the set screw as discussed? I want to be able to talk it through with a local gunsmith that's near me.
 
Tell him to be careful or he will break the bit when he hits the wedge slot. I drill almost through and finish with a Burr (grinding bit).

You'll want to grind the cone of the set screw flat so it won't eat into the wedge (it's a bearing now, not a set screw).
Adjust as needed.
Of course, unless you fix the arbor length, you'll not be "setting" the wedge, it'll be just like before . . . . you'll be able to jam the cylinder with the barrel . . . . . . (all this stuff compliments the other stuff).

For anyone who wants to see an original Walker, go to the 45th Infantry Museum, (Thunderbirds) in Oklahoma City, OK. I saw one there last week.
 
My Walker

Thanks for the advice guys!
I talked things through with a friendly gunsmith and my Walker is now rock solid; he shortened the arbor a little and replaced the bottom frame pins, now shoots like a dream!
Need to get a load sorted now ....

Yes, the cylinder is in the white. I have a spare cylinder that I also deblued. The rest of the gun has been antiqued: I stripped the blue, heated it to about 225* and used a paper towel to dab some Birchwood Casey cold blue to it while hot, then lightly ran steel wool over it. In person it looks like a well used gun with the blue almost worn off.

Well I'll tell you what, you've got about the best looking Walker I've yet seen on this board, and I've seen a bunch. :)

I am trying to view the several pics of Lionrobe77's Walker with the detachable through the hammer screw Italian shoulder stock from Sept. 6, 2013 on page 176 of the Walkers Owners Club. The pics seem to be gone/link broken.

I have them on my drive, just send me your email and I'll send them to you.
It is a milled "trough: in the bottom of the grip and a "home made" extended screw then he is using a stock which is probably for a Dragoon.

Following from thi I worked out from a chart elsewhere on this forum that the AC date code makes it a 1977 manufacture! So I was 10 when it was made...
