short barreled 44s are so hard to get the ball seated. Use a cheater pipe or load them in a gun with long barrel/longer seating ramrod, i.e. more leverage or as I use to teach , more mechanical advantage.
Or….take the cylinder off the gun and use one of those loaders like the old “Tower of Power”

This is a screen grab off Facebook from a guy in Europe that collects, restores, hunts with and competes with all types of historical black powder firearms. Thought you might enjoy the two Henrys winning gold & silver in a recent competition.

that is a steal! I have two. I use mine in classic cowboy and never had a problem. they are 12 ga the chinese used a Colt 1878 10ga for the pattern so they are extra solid and can handle 3 inch magnum shells if you are crazy enough to want to try them. John Henry is a good guy to trade with. I have met him in my cardiologist’s parking lot in jackson MS and bought and sold guns with him more than once. irish ☘️ pat
James Henry not John Henry
I can attest to that Irish Pat !
I am a retired sergeant from a Sheriff’s Office and when I first got my ttn, I just had to see for myself.
Loaded her up with law enforcement issued 3” 12 pellet 00 Buck in both barrels. Touched off both barrels at same time !!What a rush ! I don’t recommend doing that if you ain’t built like a lumberjack but that little sawed off just handled it like a champ !

Great price for a great handgun with super grips !
If I didn’t already have 3 Old Armies I would jump on this like a Coyote on Cottontail !

I have a ‘72 Open Top .38 with a 5 1/2” barrel I might consider letting go for $500.
It is marked Cimarron, Fredricksburg, Texas.Never really thought about letting it go because I really like the looks of it even though I rarely shoot it
It would be next week before I could do anything anyway, if your local shop doesn’t pan out or you don’t locate what you’re looking for else where, give me a shout next week.

I see lots of people looking for those (on the used market) but most people have one want to keep them.
best bet time wise and $$ wise is get it from someone like E Arthur Brown

Wow !
Knife & sheath are both gorgeous !
Well worth the asking price !

Rocky Mountain Cartridge can make you some. They are very spendy but they are available. Figure $8 each with a minimum order of 20. They are turned from bar stock and not “drawn” like conventional cartridges. That’s what makes them so expensive. The good thing is you will never wear them out.

I visited Rick “Bear Bones” Smith at his forge in southern Oregon to pick up one of two custom knives I had him design and build. Good man, great blade smith. Wish I could buy this as it is my favorite blade design. I regret that he has since retired.
