You could try a store that sells plumbing supplies like Lowes or Home Depot. Personally, I don't use anything on the BP. Grease is too messy and I haven't found a need for tape as my breech plug comes out super easy when I'm done firing.

A good Grandad is a Grandkid's best friend, enjoy them. I dont have any, I do have a Daughter but she say's she's never having kid's :( she's set on being a career women for now I guess, hopefully some day she'll change her mind befor I get too old to enjoy em. As for the ML's, I dont see too many camo rings around, and the ACCURA's have a slightly bigger base screw than most ML's so finding one's that fit are a problem. Well the wood pile is calling me again, burned a-lot of wood the last few weeks, so I better get out there. We heat only with wood, I do have gas but we use it just for the stove and hotwater tank. I hate the Gas Company, especially here in the Northeast, they got you buy the @&%*'s with the price's. Anyway the extra money we save get's put to a good use, like more ML stuff! Catch Ya Later...........Ron

The most common tape is white (the natural color of PTFE) color tape is not materially different, only used to color code pipe lines, however, there are different grades.

Tear off about a foot of white and wrap it the opposite direction of the threads. Overlap both ends slightly and your good to go.

I Looked everywhere, Wal-Mart, Home De-Pot. Value, Tractor Supply, our hometown plumbing stores, NO Pink anywhere. I gave up and bought the most expensive (White) and now I dont have to get them funny looks anymore when I ask for the PINK! BP

In Home Depot it is not with the normal plumbing supplies got go over into the gas line supplies - in fact the last time i bought some from them i had to "where is it?'

Mike, I asked em at Home Depot and they asked a few of the guys that worked there and they all said no, they dont carry it. But next time I go by I'll stop in again and go to the gas line supplies and then ask and see what happens. I also have a friend who is a plumber, and he does gas lines also, so I'll check with him, he likes to think he knows everything and pretty much he does, about plumbing anyways.
