Dated 1871. All parts present even to firing pin wrench. Shiny bore. Problem: Generic Brass - current sources? I hear Bell locked their doors. I have loading data. I have the modern bullet mold. I would like to fine loading dies at prices more reasonable that RCBS's quote of $240! Any suggestions? CHL [MODERATOR: Sounds hopeless, I think you should just sell the gun. How about I give you a couple bucks for it ... ? ;-) ]
