I am contemplating " improving " my flint 62 smoothy to a cap lock. Just can't seem to get too excited with the click/boom romance and the corresponding err in accuracy.
Dosnt seem like too much work to me and pretty straight forward.
I am planning on purchasing a cap hammer and a nipple drum to do the conversion.
A whole cap lock if there is reason the hammer/drum won't work for some reason.
Anybody done this before in modern times? Many have gone the other way from cap to flint so can't see the huge difficulty.
