1. Do you know of any companies that sell double action pre 1898 revolver replicas that are any good? Double action seems like it would be better for home defense! Any suggestions would be appreciated! Or do most companies only make single action replicas? I know that double action revolvers were made pre 1898. - 2. Also, the gun in your video for example what is the sweet spot for the powder? I saw a guy shooting a 44 caliber in a different video with a replica and he measured the velocities and the sweet spot seemed to be 30 grains of powder with the fffg equivalent of the pyrodex powder. Anything over that seemed to not increase the velocity very much and is probably just more dangerous. - 3. Also, how dangerous is it to store black powder in your home? - 4. I had another question. Would it be dangerous to store a loaded black powder gun in a hot car?

Do you really think the black powder pistols are worth 289 or 300 dollars. I believe they are way over priced. I want to get a kit and clean & file & smooth out the action myself I believe.. It will make it more personal that way.. And the cost is much cheaper as well.

I know this is years ago that you made this, but i just recently visited my grandad after not seeing him for 10 years and he went through all this with me, and I'm starting to get into black powder rifles and pistols, its amazing to see the people are still interested in it! Beats burning through full boxes of ammo with full autos. I love the feel and the history behind black powder guns.

Just went over my black powder guns with my son, 12 I showed him this video BEST ONE Cleaning wise I have found, I do add 1 more step before I replace the guns nipples I add little anti seize to the thread. I got my first black powder guns USED and abused I broke a nipple wrench just on the first disassembly prior to shooting, had to cut a 5mm socket to do the job. After that I learned 2 things 1 anti seize is my friend 2 One does not need to torque the nipples just hand tight is all that is needed.

Black powder guns are the only type of guns legal without permit or any bureaucratic hassle in my country. I was at the shooting range for the first time today with one of these. It was fun!

I'm not a gun guy at all. But this is fascinating. Also the paper cartridges. I envy that you Americans so easily can access and play around with this stuff. I wonder what shootouts really were like when there was so much work to be done between each reload. I wish there were Westerns that actually focus on those details. Nothing is more intriguing than historical realism, IMO.

For a first revolver, I prefer the 1858 Remington. You can easily remove the cylinder and you can buy a very inexpensive loading press (like $19.00) which makes loading the cylinder off the revolver real easy and far easier then loading the revolver using it's own ramming system. Also, with an 1858, you can buy extra cylinders, load them all and be able to shoot quite a few rounds just by swapping out the spent cylinders and replacing them with loaded ones. I have two extra cylinders for my 1858 so I can shoot 18 shots before having to reload. As for substitutes, I have found triple 7 to be the best. But you do have to reduce the load slightly. Triple 7 has performed better for me then Pyrodex. I find no advantage to using a .36 cal over the more common .44 caliber. Neither has much recoil. A 20 - 25 grain load of fffG black powder is more then enough and is an accurate load for a .44 cal 1858 shooting 141 grain balls at 15 - 25 yards.

@archangele1

Жыл бұрын

@@Puppy_Puppington I believe there are conversion cylinders but they require you to remove the cylinder, pull it apart and insert cartridges. Plus I am not a fan of using smokeless powder with conversion cylinders in these old BP guns. I find it as easy to just load the cylinders with the little press designed for the BP revolvers and just keep a few loaded cylinders when you are at the range. Between my two old Remington revolvers I have four cylinders which gives me 24 shots. I mean how many more does one need to practice with unless a person is one of those bang bang bang cowboy wannabe's who use the cowboy range and fire off 1000 rounds at about arms length. If that's the case, buying a Ruger Vaquero in .45 Colt would be a better option and probably safer.

I've recently gotten back into the hobby myself...except where I live its teflon cookware gang territory

Once I was going to go into town to the store. I went to the car with my arms loaded with stuff including my .36 cal. pistol. I set the pistol on top the car so I could use both hands to load stuff. The pistol was in a leather holster with the thong over the hammer and the pistol was loaded in all six chambers with the hammer set between chambers. As I was driving down the gravel road I remembered my pistol. Just at that moment it fell from the top, off the trunk and onto the gravel road. It flopped down the road for some distance. It did not go off. The holster, which was open topped, protected the pistol and only a few scratches on the wooden grip at the heal. The center position between chambers worked well as far as safety.

Breaking Badman: The Chemist Goes West

Hot water, dish soap, extra virgin olive oil to oil, cricso (cooking lard or shorting) for lubing the chambers and arbor pin, cost around 10 bucks for almost a years supply of average shooting.

When ever I see new style black powder rifles with the plastic camouflage stock and no lock I say, HAA GEY!! But when I see a percussion Hawkins 50 cal trapper pistol I go OOHH YEAH

Nice vid and lots of good points, However I would like to add a few more points for consideration; for lube, stay away from anything "petroleum" based. Something based in vegetable or bees wax based works very well. A very cheap (and messy) alternative I use is Crisco grease. For capping the cylinders, I would recommend a Ted Cash snail capper (quite inexpensive) that can reach into the tight space between the frame and cylinder, that can be awkward to reach for us people that have "fat fingers". Also, very important, KEEP YOUR FINGERS AWAY from the front of the cylinder while capping, in case a cylinder goes off. For cleaning / maintenance purposes I see the nipple wrench you got with your Pietta, includes the wire pusher for cleaning the nipples (screwed into the back part of the wrench). For mine, it was NOT included (basic wrench only) so I improvised with a cheap automotive wire feeler gauge that I straightened out. But any straight .020 copper wire will do. For cleaning, HOT water is indeed best, however, I include an equal mix of Murphy"s oil soap (Ballistol works very well too) to the water, in case the water creeps into spaces of the gun I can"t reach, to wipe out later...will help prevent rusting. A very small dab of "copper never seize" on the nipple threads, ensures easy removal...even after a full day of shooting. For additional maintenance purposes, I recommend a good set of "hollow ground" screw drivers / screwdriver bit set. The screws of this gun WILL loosen with use / firing and actually fall out if you aren't paying attention, often within one days use and need to be tightened. The hollow ground screwdrivers will help reduce the distortion of the screw heads, that a normal "flat blade" screw driver will cause. A possible solution for the loosening of the screws (for some) could include the use of "blue Locktite" or clear nail polish, as a temporary solution. This leads to, eventually the gun needs to be disassembled for internal cleaning or repair and so an actual disassembly guide / "exploded view" (google search) guide is needed. Most parts, for the most common items (like broken springs and lost screws) are readily available on the interwebs from places like Taylors and Company. Recommended also....READ, READ, READ all the info you can on the use of this gun and others's experiences with other users black powder fire arms. Then dig out your wallet and buy ANOTHER one, because it is contagious and one aint enough..."keep your powder dry"! This information is solely based on MY experiences with an 1851 Navy (Pietta) (and others), your results may be different.

I have watched a few times Dustin even going into my 5th BP gun still so much to learn. I have had a few friends ask on initial purchase which one to get. I pick em up head out to range with My .44 Pietta Sheriff and my Hawken I`ll let them load and shoot it, then back to house I will walk them through the Clean Up, Some are lost here never to return to the B.P subject, others you see it in the eyes all light up and dancing run out and get a CVA/Traditions/Thompson. and Off to the races for them...

Back in the 1970s I got tired of measuring powder for each shit so I got a flask with an adjustable Plunger. One adjusts the volume before putting the Plunger in.

I love black powder. "Cap and Ball" channel has a couple of videos showing what happens when smokeless is placed in a black powder revolver. I never mind cleaning. Warm soapy water and your brush and everything cleans right up. Hot clear rinse water and the metal parts will steam dry. Wipe down with your favorite protectant lube and that's all. Ballistol is my current favorite. No worse than washing a few dishes. I do try to avoid petroleum products and try to use natural products. Petroleum products can leave a thicker stiffer fouling than natural products.

The better advice I got was to just bite the bullet and buy a book or 2 about black powder and muzzelloaders. When I was able to sit down and reference the book when getting advice it did help alot. Sure they come with a manual, but having that extra reference deffenitly helps with the safety aspect of everything. I ended up getting a cooler to keep supplies in. Non metal, keeps temp swings to a minimum and allows a bit of a safety barrier just in case something falls unexpectedly.

It depends where you get it that depends on what the price is... but I started out reenacting with a 1851 brass frame, then an 1860 army,, then back to a 1851 .36 cal.. but the colts a lot of times they can jam up with the caps falling down into the mechanisms or screws coming out
