    powder in the pan ignites powder in chamber

    My addition to this thread is directed to the original poster. I have read every reply to your question. Through my reading here I have come to this conclusion. A tiny flame from the flash pan is forced into the touch hole and ignites the powder, most of the time. I use the word "forced" because...

    Snuff or chewing tobacco is o k, as long as it is not spit at my feet or where I am going to be hunkering. Smoking, I refuse to be around. I don't care if it is hc/pc or not!! If I can't avoid breathing and/or smelling it any other way I will go back to the house. Now that I have stepped in...

    Does HC/PC mean historically correctly/period correct? If not what does it mean? To me those two terms mean the same exact thing. Mule

    This response is to everyone who responded to my post. Thanks a bunch, Y'all have helped me immensely. I have two BP rifles, three revolvers, two more colonial pistols (one is flint lock) and a snake eyes derringer. I have never shot any of them, because of a lack of knowledge. Even though I...

    Is this the type anti seize you are referring to? I can get it in a 1oz tube. https://www.oreillyauto.com/shop/b/chemicals---fluids-16461/maintenance-chemicals-16867/grease---lube-16582/anti-seize-17774/31f81cb18df6/2004/dodge/ram-2500?q=anti+seize This is the only way I knew to attach this...

    I have another question. Is there a way to keep the nipple from becoming almost impossible, or impossible, to remove?

    TFoley, then I am safe cause I only used it on the lock mechanism and then wiped thoroughly.

    I started cleaning my guns when I was 7 years old. I got my first gun for Christmas 1953. It was a Hercules .410 side by side. I still have it. My Dad always used 3-in-1 oil to lube and clean with. We never had a BP gun. We cleaned after every hunt. (The guns were only used for hunting. No...

    I ain't no photographer but I did, finally, get the pictures off of the camera. The inside of the barrel is 5.5 inches deep. Does anyone know what the numbers listed earlier mean? Mule

    I agree. I also thought it had to say "black powder only" on the barrel. This makes me do a lot of wondering.

    I did not smear Bore Butter on the inside of the lock plate. I used SS2 All Purpose Gun Lubricant. I bought this, no longer available gun oil, at an estate sale. I don't know how long I've had it. I thought I had some Ballistol, but I guess not. Is the oil I used acceptable for black powder guns?

    I went ahead and disassembled it. To see the below names and numbers the gun has to be completely disassembled. 147 on bottom of trigger guard 82 on bottom of barrel tang 82 hand written on front end of stock in barrel bed SPAIN on back side of lock plate at bottom, below main spring 82 on...

    I have not disassembled it, but there are no proof marks visible. To disassemble it, it looks like I'll have to drive a small pin out. I don't really like doing that. With my luck I'll end up damaging the wood. But, I do have that desire to know if. Mule
