Buying a used T/C Hawken percussion .50; what do I need? - Page 2

Another thanks for all the replies. SainthoodDenied was nice enough to throw in some .490 balls, patches, caps, and pyrodex, so that shortens my initial purchase list.

Cheers,

Yep. All-brass jags can last a lifetime. Like any tool, treat 'em right and they'll do their job. Now I've never personally broken one

, but I've helped out others who have, and believe me, IF one ever does break off, it's mighty inconvenient. And if somebody else can break one, so can I. I'd hate for it to happen during a public event

- after all, I've got a reputation to uphold.
