Saw a youtube yesterday where a guy had a Walker cartridge conversion to ".45-55 Walker".
I've not heard or that before, but what kind of puzzled me about the video was that he still had the loading lever on the pistol, which of course dropped every time he shot it. Just like every cap and ball Walker you see, Pow! Slap lever back up. Pow! Slap lever back up. Pow! Slap lever back up. That's what he was doing. I kept screaming at him: PUT A RUBBER BAND ON IT FOOL!!!! and: "TAKE THE LEVER OFF!!!!!"
Maybe it's just me, but on a cartridge conversion Walker why in the heck would you leave the lever on if it dropped with every shot? Am I crazy, or is he?? Or was he so used to Walker lever-slapping, that he didn't even know he was doing it?
