I already have a 58' remmy that's cap n ball, I'm looking at uberti's 51 navy that's already converted. Loading gate and all. I do carry my remmy in the woods now. I trust it as protection completely, but I've been wanting something in a conversion and uberti sells them already converted. I've...

I'd love to get a second gun for sd, but I only have money for one gun this year. Perhaps next tax season...

I know colts have to be disassembled to reload but the conversions have the reloading gate. Sorry I realized I wasn't clear. Looking at Unerti's colt navy conversion model. Also it does have full 6 chambers.

I know it's been awhile since I was on here. Sorry. I'm thinking of buying a navy conversion, but they only come in .38 I plan on getting involved in sass so I like the gun for that. However (I know many will disagree with this) but it's also going to be my carry gun for in the woods...

There are many threads posted discussing this issue, and many of the members on this forum have said they do or would carry. I myself will when I get my concealed carry permit.

I guess I'll take a stab at this, I think it comes down to being comfortable with your weapon. If you shoot a gun enough, you learn it and know it's evey quirk. I'm a mix of modern and old. I trust my Remington 870, and my Remington 1858 the most for home defense. (Wow, I just realized they're...

After cleaning my gun, I clear the nipple with a pick. I read on one thread that a toothpick can introduce condensation. Not sure but my nipple wrench came with a brass pick in it. Once clean I put the nipples on the cylinder, and then hold it up to a light. Looking down the front of each...

Gentleman of the Charcoal, you actually stopped a grizzly with a walker! I know that's off topic of original post, so how bout ya start a thread and tell the full story! I'm sure it's a good one! To op, I agree with gentleman. Though I'm not familiar with colts, it happens quite frequently...

I realise he was interested in shotgun, I also realised those posts were for rifle/pistol. I was merely trying to get some ideas to begin with.

Bloody 'el! I've always wondered that myself! I'm so in dude!

There's been some posts on that most people use cigarette rolling papers. I've tried it once but yet to fire any. I'll try and find the thread about it and post it on here.

Youngstown area, I see you hail from 'cross the river...

Thanks for the help all. 22 isn't a big deal since it's so cheap anyway, mainly the .380 and the two rifle sizes since they're so expensive. I have one head start, don't know why but I've always saved my brass all these years. Shotgun is cheap for the most part. My biggest interest (although...

Disclaimer: If any of these questions have already been asked, my most sincere apologies. I recently joined THR, but only "hang out" in the black powder forum, but am interested in broadening my horizon. I find that I'm gaining an interest in reloading, but one of my biggest concerns is...

Been playing today some and I'm having some trouble with getting the flint to ignite the primer. Any thoughts?

Holy Crap! I just got it and fired it! You guys were dead on the money with the .440 round ball. It took me an hour or so to figure out how to put the flint in to fire right. But wow what a gun! thanks again for your knowledge. It's dark now so I'll play with getting the load adjusted in...

Wonderful advice from all! A million thanks! I'm vibrating with excitement in anticipation! Definitely have the b.p. bug.

If any of you have doubt about the stopping power of a cap and ball, rush me someday when I'm carrying my remmie and see what happens when your on the business end of a lead ball...

Thanks for the help!!! The worst now is having to wait at least another week to get it and fire! Looking for .440 molds online. I'm going to take a vernier when I get it, and measure the bore to try and figure out for sure the ball size.
