a. Rotate safety to “fire” position.

sear.

a. Lubricate the br
eech plug/nipple
assembly threads thoroughly with a
good quality black powder gun grease.
(See Figure 27) Do not lubricate the
back or nipple portions of the breech
plug. Failure to lubricate it will make
this part extremely difficult to remove.
b. Using the supplied breech plug wrench, insert and tighten the breech
plug/nipple assembly into the threaded rear end of the barrel.
(See Figure 28) Do not over-tighten -- firmly snug will do. It will tighten
during firing.
