Cap and Ball Info?

woodit · December 18, 2000, 03:07 PM

Can anyone point me to a good primer (preferably through the net) on buying, owning, loading, and shooting replica cap and ball and early cartridge revolvers? I have only owned modern pistols to date.

Thanks.

My CVA 36 Navy Colt 1851 cma ew ith an owners manual that told me everything I really had to know to go shoot. I had never fired black podwer before that. It wasnt hard, just had to take it slow at first.
