Getting back into cap and ball BP guns right in the middle of no easy way to get the "fix'ins" was dumb
Stupid hurts my Clan has always said
Anyway ..thankfully I had a reasonable amount of BP,Pyrodex and 777 ...but only a couple tins of #11's
So I've bought the aluminum can cup/cap maker and have been successful in building 100% functional caps
It is s-l-o-w to be honest and I'm not quite where I wish to generate ALL the caps I hope to bust cause I'm busy!!
SO ...I spent tonight going to every source of primers I'm aware of and ZERO on hand (one place had 4 wing musket caps)
So ..is it out of line to suggest a spot on this forum for a "Heads UP" forum when a LEGITIMATE dealer, wholesaler or big box outfit displays powder,percussion caps inventory available to the public (or any other short supplied items critical to out sport)
Or maybe some other forum or web site already has this I'm just the last to hear about it.
