Tennessee Mountain Rifle
Hi guy's long time......I just purchased a new "Drum and Nipple" for My Tennessee Mountain Rifle, the Drum needs to come around about another half turn to line up with the Hammer.. What should I do, take off some of the bottom of the Drum Threads so it will come around more> Thank's, Ron

I would add Pics if I can get someone to help with the "Security Token" it says I'm missing to do so.
