    Interesting percussion musket - no idea what it is?

    I was at a local auction and saw this interesting musket for sale. Ended up winning it for $300 (i am guessing I paid too much). Anyways, i have no idea what the musket is, it looks like it was maybe a conversion piece from flint lock, as it has this weird percussion cap lock/safety. From what I...

    Which caps to use with Revolver

    I recently brought a Traditions 1861 J.H. Dance & Brothers in 44 Cal. I have yet to shoot it, however I have been doing a bit a research.
