Just google your alias. Bet you’ll find your phone number somewhere
Googled my alias, turns out I must own lots of property around the country, and have various phone numbers.

Here are some more. They are not rare and most are in decent condition.

Yeah, spoke with a dealer who deals with antique firearms about my musket the other day, said they have one for $1900 and can't find anybody interested, and they thought they'd be able to move it at this price.

There are more than five but they are scarcer than an original. In fact for several years when I was looking you could find originals for well under $2K.
when I first seen these, at a few antique gun shows in PA years back, they were pushing 5 digits, if not 5 digits........now it seems people who are trying to sell them, can't move them and are reducing prices quite a bit.

I have '73 musket in 44.40 made around WW1.
I've used in a few matches without issues.
It's fun, it's cool, and yes it can be unwieldy.
I do not know the tube capacity, nor do I have a bayonet for it.
As for the weight, it doesn't seem to be much heavier than my Uberti 66 with a 24" barrel.

I use Lee shell holders in place of those wimpy collets. Not sure if other brand shell holders would work the same.
This is a good idea, gonna give it a shot as my rubber bands on the collets broke.

Lets say you have 3 FCGF sign up, and 9 Senior FCGF. do you round up or down?
They would round down since Senior FCGF doesn't have the minimum of 10.

Should I buy a 45ACP cylinder and shoot 45acp cartridges in my Colt gun or Just buy 45 Cowboy Spl and shoot them in the 45 Colt Cylinder !
Do you shoot 45acp in other pistols? 1911? Glock? Whatever else?
I do 45acp for smokeless, also same load for my 1911s. I load 45cbwy spl just for black/subs. My converter is the Kirst.

Also, you can use 45 Cowboy Special ammo in the 45 ACP conversion cylinder. I do this in my Old Army's.

Attached are some of @Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 tuning guides for Pietta's, and Uberti's with info on doing the coil type conversions.
I used these years back for my 1860s and they came out great, not sure how different a Dragoon would be.

I have this press, parts that work the auto indexing are flimsy plastic, and wear out/break easily. Even after getting new parts from LEE, it still didn't hold up. Now I rotate the dies manually. Been like this for 10 years now.
