Default Pedersoli 209 conversion for percussion gun

I got a 209 conversion from Pedersoli so I could try black horn 209 in my Pedersoli percussion guns . Beats duplexing . I especially want to try it in some of my fast twist Pedersoli's

Yes . it just looks screws in where the #11 nipple is , so it's a simple change .
Those are working hands you probably aren't familiar with that

Oh. Sorry, my mistake. When I saw those dirty hands I thought you might be a politician.

Do you have to unscrew that cap every time to put in/on a new primer? Seems a bit too much. Why not just make it a simple 1/4 turn "quick lock" type system with possibly a bit of spring tension (or O-ring) to hold it in place?

capping in a hurry surely sucks with that thing. I had the mag spark for 7-8 shots before it ripped open on it. Its a neat idea and works, just havent trusted these things since.

I wasn't to impressed with the mag spark
I have heard both good and bad about them . That's kind of why I went with the Pedersoli and since it's going on a Pedersoli I figure might as well stay true to the brand.
