Walker Muzzle Loading Revolver in slow motion

ITS NOT A MUZZLE LOADER YOU COCKSTAIN

@Pntbll891 You're mistaken. Muzzleloading firearms are defined as those firearms which are incapable of being loaded from the breech. Hence, a precussion cap and ball revolver is a Muzzleloader.

@Pntbll891 Muzzleloaders, by virtue of the fact that they do not fire fixed ammunition, are considered antique firearms under The Gun Control Act of 1968 and are not restricted in trade by any federal law or regulation. This applies to both antique and new made muzzleloaders.

@Pntbll891 There may be state or local ordinances which restrict the ability to ship direct to your door, but most states can mail order Muzzleloaders. Residents of HI, NJ, MA and MI are urged to check their state and local laws for any restrictions on ordering black powder firearms.

@solidmetalfork If you ever want to ship a percussion revolver via UPS...they will refuse to do so. I made the mistake of declaring contents once and they said sorry we can't accept...despite my explaining that BATF did not classify it as a firearm. The UPS folks told me my mistake was that I should've kept my mouth shut about what was in the box. Use your imagination to figure out how I later shipped it anyway!!! Hope my little warning helps someone

I need some advice now. I shot my Walker for the first time. After the 6 rounds the cylinder became very hard to rotate. I have not experienced this with my other BP revolvers. I have no misfires until after about 24 rounds. Then it acted as if the hammer was not hitting the caps. I never experience this with any other BP revolvers either. What do you think?
