View attachment 23756 View attachment 23757 View attachment 23758 Good evening all. Finally home from travels to family to help out with the stuff of life, estates and whatnot. Back to smoke...
Attached is a photo of the breech of this pistol, just a ground off circle suggesting a breech block, threaded? The second photo is the touch hole area. The ink mark on the left was a reference to the center of the pan. The mark on the right is the rear wall of the bore.
The current plan is to dremel out the pan, elongating it toward the muzzle just a bit to allow drill ing the touch hole at the 1/8” mark on the ruler. At that point i’ll drill a 3/8” centered rearward extension of the bore, just past seeing daylight through the touch hole.
Now i need to figure out where to post a message re a flint longrifle i just bought with a bad lock.....
