Default My new toy!!!

UPS just delivered my .54cal renegade! Great looking stock and the bore looks great as well. Cleaning it up now. Already sold the stock, so i just mounted the 54 barrel onto the stock that builder gave me, boy did that 54cal lighten up the gun!

My custom 54 barrel is at the post office so i will pick that up tomorrow and see how it looks.

So busy with these guns!

lmao...now that's funny right there. Looks like you need a CO2 discharger or put some FFFFg into the bolster and fire it out. Or I guess you can always pull it.

Yeah i thought so to! What ever conical was down there wasn't coming out with a ball puller. No powder in the drum so i said fudge it, if it blows, it blows.

Added some pyrodex in the bolster, capped it, put it on the lead sled, put a string on the trigger and BOOOOM!

Powder channel must have been plugged up and didn't allow the last shooter to fire it off.

After putting it in warm soapy water, pure black fouling came out with that typical smell of goex.

Can't take a chance of damaging that face you know. The camera just loves it.
