With all this talk about handguns, I pulled the 1851 our of it's storage place.
Decided to clean it after more than a year of it sitting in the case. It was still spotless and no sign of rust.
I grabbed the manual and found a difference of opinion as to the initial powder charge. Then while really looking at the chamber I asked myself, How does the powder keep from falling out of the back of the chamber before the cap is placed on the nipple.
Ideas?
