Tucker, I will take the open tops if they are available I will be at Land Run later tonight. I will probably have Cole Trigger pick them up for me later today. Thanks
As previously stated by the c&b masters ( PD, J-Bar and Noz), get a Ted Cash wrench and use with your multi-tip screwdriver handles. I put the TC nipple bit in with my brownells screwdriver case. Goes with me every time I shoot.
Depending on how much I like shooting the 5 1/2's vs the 7 1/2's, I may want to send my 7 1/2's to you at some point. I love the contrast. Please bring to landrun. I'll be interested in seeing it in person. Good work, imho.
Sry no go for him at this time. He is focused on a left handed AR. He has been building his house for a decade. No telling how long he will be working on this left handed AR.
I have a buddy (non-cas) that may be interested. I'll talk with him tomorrow. Trying to talk him out of a pietta 1851 when he is more concerned about accuracy vs period correct.
When I switched to setting up the shells so that #1 and #3 from the left sit at a different height than #2 and #4 the occurrence of shell fumbles significantly went down. Oh yea, you have to wear out at least one 97 clone practicing.
I test fired my new to me ROA's this afternoon. I was a little bummed about 10-15 mph wind. The smoke cleared way too soon. The new hammers from Boomstick made them a whole lot easier to manage. I gotta do something about the stock 25lb hammer springs.
As it has been already said, frontiersman is going to be huge. Can't wait. I'll have my 2017 schedule soon. I sure hope I can make it.
