Need Help.

I wanted to put a flash cup on my Zouave 1863 .58 cal rifle. Problem is I can't find anybody that carries them for the musket cap size. Dose anybody have a place in mine to try an fine them for this rifle.

If you find one, make sure you use eye protection!! My experience with a flash cup on my .45 Kentucky is that if the cap sheds copper fragments, they are sent right at your eyes. The very first time I used it, I got a copper fragment buried in my nose about an inch from my right eye.

Good luck, have fun, but be careful.

Thinks Naybor. I never thought about that. Would like to fine something to put on the rifle to keep the caps from messing up the finish.

I took it back off and started using floor or car wax and the residue pretty well wipes off.
