Post by: fastson on February 11, 2008, 10:32:39 AM: What is the USAian name of a frigging tongs which you pour some lead into to make bullets?

They look something like this.

Post by: fastson on February 11, 2008, 10:49:22 AM: Bah.. that easy?

I was going for something similar to the swedish word
Kultång -> kul (kula) = bullet, tång = tong

Bullet-tong! but it wasnt that easy. :(

Anyway, thanks. I found something just before you replied, Bullet MOLD!

As long as they are made before 1890 and does not use cartridges, its fine. ;)

Post by: Titan on February 11, 2008, 07:34:15 PM: Ah, that thread was a good time :)

Fastson\'s firearm is more of a work of art than what lionken had. Fastsons are antiques and valuable to collect, not to mention shoot. I love firing black powder rifles. I want to get a kit to build and go to the range with.

Post by: fastson on February 13, 2008, 08:04:47 AM: I\'ve shot with that pistol once, and I dont think I\'ll do it again.

Cleaning black powder guns is TEH HORRIBLE!

Post by: fastson on February 19, 2008, 08:08:11 AM: Fuck. Im in desperate need for a good nipple wrench, looks like I might have to import since I cant find anything in my country. :(

I tried manufacturing one at work, the first one made of stainless-steel was too soft. So I tried to hardened it but it became too hard so it cracked. :hissyfit:

These suckers refuse to give way. If you have some free time, try and help me find something that fits nipples for a Remington 1858 New Army Model.

Post by: fastson on February 20, 2008, 07:41:06 AM: Other than the once we use to torture Danish people, its also a tool that helps you remove the nipples from the gun. A nipple is a little thingy where you put the firing cap.

They look like this:

You can see the nipples on the pic.

Modern guns dont have this as the firing cap is in the cartridge.

Post by: CHIZZY on February 20, 2008, 09:35:15 AM: Nice... my pops has a couple single-action revolvers...a .41 magnum, and a ..30 cal...it\'s fun to cock back the hammer and blast away..
Title: Pistol yielding cowboys, need yo HALP!
Post by: fastson on February 21, 2008, 10:10:02 AM: Indeed it is. :thumb: Cocking that is, as I\'ve never fired mine. THough I might soon since I\'m meeting up with some black powder-holics in a few weeks.

Have you ever shot Clint style, aka. using the palm of your hand to cock the revolver? Kinda risky but it would look cool.
