I want to learn this trade because I don't know any trade except for philosophy. Unfortunately, philosophy doesn't get you anywhere except bad debt. I want to take your course but I can not afford 10000 dollars for the complete course of DVDs
It's very interesting to note the great differences between these "reproductions" and original model 1876's. It is quite a shame that the Italian manufactures did not actually copy from an original , the result would have been a far superior arm with greater strength. The toggle link on the originals are designed to actually lock when in a straight line with the bolt closed. The "reproductions" do not have this feature which results from a simple piece of additional machining.
I am very much interested in the Chapparral Arms 1876 NWMP carbine in 45-60. However I have read some very negative reviews of these guns on line. What is your opinion overall of the quality and fit of these guns? I am willing to do some minor fitting and polishing if that's all they need to slick 'em up.. I want the 45-60 version because brass is very easy to make from 45-70 brass
One has to be already a qualified gunsmith to understand what you are trying to say. May I suggest that you first work the lever a few times, so that we may see the action move? Then show us where the cartridge (a fake one) hit the chamber mouth. Then explain the carrier is too high due to...?

Is it possible to replace the original bolt (rimfire carts unavailable as far as I can ascertain) with a centerfire-type bolt?

Wish I could see you replace an extractor in a 73. I have an old (1909) one that needs replacing but couldn't figure out how to remove the old one.
