According to this forum for "Firearm Review Forum"..this is for Rifles,Shot Guns,"Black Powder",Pistols,ect. Now even though this was my first post..It seems A "Reputation" of a company as "you stated" is more important than "safety to the people" that purchase a product. I purchased the product.It seems YOU have a problem with Mr. bridges.Not me.For the 4 people that have had these rifles, and now for my self trying to take measures so this does not happen to me at "my expense" "Before it happens".This still does not explane why 4 diffrent people with 4 diffrent guns..who don't even know each other have this happen using recommended loads have thier rifles blow up.I like the idea of using smokeless powder in a muzzel loader.That is why I purchased this product with my money.But if thier is a wrong design that is causing this problem..then fix it.Most important is SAFETY..Not Reputation..make the best product in the world and be proud of it.."Safety of a product first" Mr Falcon..not reputation.One last thing Mr. Falcon..When I purchased this weapon a few years ago I was proud of it and still em.I made a custom rifle stock for it with a thumb hole in the stock.I had a smith even jewel the Bolt.I put expensive optics on it..So That is why I don't want any damage to happen to it..a lot of time and personal work I put in to my guns..and a lot of money.I have now two gun smiths reviewing the design at my cost.If I have to go to a custom barrel and if it can be done..then so it be..I don't need this to happen to me.So that is why I put it in this Section Mr Falcon.
