Hi everybody!
Today my question is... how to correct the cylinder gap on an 1851 navy by ASP.
The gap on mine is far to big and im sure im losing a fair amount of velocity and muzzle energy due to it. i have concocted a few ideas but still have some questions..
My first idea was to file the area where the 2 pins connect to the barrel assembly thing, and then file the pins down a lil bit aswell incase the holes arent deep enough after fileing but then after i do that, even if the gap is exactly how i want it, im wondering if the big flat pin that holds everything together will still fit in properly with the changes i want to make??
I'm open to any suggestions you all may have.
