southparkslim Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 I would like to have some cap post installed on a couple of 1851 navy pistols, I dont have the equipment to correctly do it myself, who would you recommend to do this thanks................Sps
El diablo gringo Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 SPS, I did the work with a hand drill and a vise. If you have a steady hand and take your time it’s quite easy. I believe Utah Bob had step by step instructions on how to do it. Best of luck Gringo
Lead Hammer Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 I had success with just filling the hammer notch (JB Weld)
Warden Callaway Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 I did a DIY video. But I worked at it harder than I really needed to. There are a couple of guys that are regular posters on The High Road black powder forum that do this work. 45 Dragoon and The Outlaw Kid. I've no personal experience with their work. http://www.goonsgunworks.com/ https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/c-b-gunsmiths-repair-tuning-and-conversion-work.870077/page-9#post-11879587
Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 45 Dragoon, at Goon's Gun Works! The Warden shows his shop URL just above! good luck, GJ
