As mentioned previously I acquired an Italian made Colt 1851 .36 caliber black powder revolver. I’d love to shoot it but having trouble finding percussion caps. I think it takes 10 or 11 with a little squeezing. Also, seems like CCI and Winchester vary in what they call 11s so I guess there will be some trial and error.

Anyone seeing them in stock lately?

The gun.

Between Shooters Outpost and Midway I’ve been able to find powder, wads and balls. Just need the caps.
