Bullett Sass 19707 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I have a .36cal Pietta 1851 cap n ball made in the 90s. I have a .45 cal kirst conversion loading gate and cylinder. Can the loading gate and cylinder be fit to the .36cal 1851 and a .44cal barrel be added and shoot .45 lc or .45 cowboy or others? Thank you Bullett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 A 44 Caliber gun has a step in the water table to accomodate the extra diameter of a 44 Cylinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That yer .36 cal gun don't have. BUT... because, we know you want to, it's ok to go out & buy a 44 gun to convert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
