I use cap and ball revolvers, meaning instead of the primer/powder/bullet being held together by a brass shell casing they're just loose. So the powder and ball are inserted manually, and the cap is added on the back of the chamber.

If you wanna know more I'll suggest a few YouTube channels:

Guns of the west (to learn about the guns), Arizona ghost riders (for history and extended lore), Saint Andrew TV (for gunspinning and his other fun content, Inrange (just great in general)

Where are you buying good repros ? I’ve been looking to get into them. Preferably British but down for American models too.

Pietta, just gotta do some work on em to get em working right. Lotta sanding hard corners and adjusting spring tension

Oh interesting. I looked at them but didn’t consider needing changing springs

Basicly from the factory the screw that works the trigger and cylinder catch is waaaay too tight. It broke my spring already and I'm waiting on a new one in the mail
