Hubbard Mag Spark is in

But it didn't fit!

Measured my nipple threads and came up with .228" and the hubbard is .231" Doesnt even start in the threads at all.

Called Mr Hubbard and he said the guy that made them, used a CSA to get the thread diameter for the 6.1 nipple and they've had some issues with this in the past. He took my name and address and said he'd go make me one and get it out to me in the mail.

Nice ol fellow to talk with!

That's disappointing. But it's nice when they stand behind the product and will make it right.

Can't understand why you guys mess with those new fangled percussion guns...

bcuz once you shoot Blackhorn, all the other powders suck! LOL

It will be fun to shoot BH209 in these sidelocks though, the powder really turned out Hawken into an eye opener.

the only problem i feel you might possibly run into is removing the carbon fron the BP, since it has a 90* bend.. you can't use a drill bit on that bend lol.. other than that, i hope it works out for yah..Ray

It has a clean out screw so i can always mod that area to be able to get in there and clean it out.

Another guy on my forum had to bend his TC's hammer in order to get things lined up. Not to sure about how well this set up is going to work out to be honest.
