Hello all,
The lady and I were out around town today and dropped in a local gunstore to look around. We had been wanting to get into black powder shooting for a while now and today we decided to just put the money down on one. The barrel is marked Navy Arms Co. Ridgefield NJ, made in Italy, and Black powder only, 44 cal. I think it is a Remington Navy, but I am not sure and any help identifying is very much appreciated.
The other question is when it comes to loading. Are wads necessary to use after the powder when shooting any kind of black powder, and are patched balls what should be used in a gun like this?
Thank you all.
