36cal Cap N Ball shooting

[frontiergander]

I did some shooting with my brothers CVA ( Armi san marco made) .36cal 1851 navy. One great little shooter with 15 grains goex 3f and a .375" ball. I put the pistol together from a kit that was made back in the 1980's, most likely before I was born LOL! Frame is brass, I just blacked it out as I hate shiny brass.

Just some fun little videos I put together guys, nothing fancy, just testing accuracy and seeing how good I really am

That thing looks great. You did a good job on that kit. Darkening the brass frame is a nice touch.
I really liked the first video with you shooting that creature filled with liquid. Probably make the children cry though.

Nice shooting! Nice looking '51. How did you treat the brass to darken it?
