Nope, I currently do not do casting. I ordered them from Whyte Leather Works. Mark always does an excellent job and vacuum packs them.

That's one fine looking Colt 3rd Model Dragoon you've got there! Please post photos of the Pocket Navy Model when you get it back (one of my favorites along with the Model 1860).

Thank you kindly sir! Just love the lines and proportions of that Pocket Navy! Holsters are icing on the BP cake!

Clembert, took a second to decipher the background and figure out the "Walkers" pun...top notch! As a long term zombie survival tool BP guns would be sustainable (make your own powder, cast lead, as long as you had caps, you stay alive)...and a minimum of four Walkers for handling groups. They can't bite you if they can't see you through the smoke!

I was going to say the top as well. But Fingers beat me to it.You know...you are a professional expert level collector and this is child's play for you.
I figure that to begin with, you need a hefty belt, then a strong back and legs for all the weight but with them loaded on all six cylinders x4 you should be able to blast your way out of most situations unless it's a herd of them. You'll certainly get a workout carrying them in your belt. And, when you run out of shots you have four good clubs to whack them with. Good point on the cover of smoke.
Note to self: if you load all 6 cylinders make sure you discharged them before the clubbing begins.And, I noted that on my cell phone the walkers were not as clearly visible as on my laptop so glad you deciphered.

ClemBert, did you age the pocket police on the right yourself or did it come that way?

I've always wanted to make my own powder.

It can be very dangerous to do so.

Top is wax...451....454 from the newest pistol. The nipples need to be changed unless I find smaller caps that fit better. Also...I need to polish the cylinder locking lug.

I was shooting this one with the purple finish.....a little disappointed. It need a little TLC. File...stone and nipple change if neccessary. $10 from Cabelas.

I'm very confused about this. What's with the wax?

I was using some of the wax bullets that the quick draw guys shoot.
