i have been working on an old CVA 50cal. percussion kit gun of a friend and one thing I tried to do was to get the breech plug out. I put TC no.13 bp solvent down a plugged barrel overnight, I turned the barrel muzzle down and soaked the plug with PB Blaster for 48 hrs., and lastly I heated the barrel at the breechplug to fairly hot, but not red, as I was fearful of overheating the barrel and after all of this the plug didn't even budge. Is there something about these things I should know about or is this plug just the proverbial immovable object? Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
