My grandfather just gave me this BP pistol. He thinks he's had it 50 years, and never fired it once. I doubt it's that old since he got it at Cabela's, and he's terrible at timelines. It is my first BP gun. So I just pour some powder in the hole, squish a bullet in there, lock a cap and then bust a cap? What about everything else....Where does the magazine go? Where do you put the tritium night sights? Where's the slide release? It's all so confusing....
It came with some .451 round ball...can I cram those bad-boys down in there?
What kind of powder and how much? Are there different kinds of primers? I've never even fired a ML before, much less loaded and shot one.
I watched this video, but am interested in your thoughts. And I have no intentions of modifying this gun as this guy did:
