got another black powder

That piece looks great. It is a really intriguing model and not very common at all.
If you need ammo, Pyramid Air always sells the 4th tin of ammo for free if you buy 3 tins.
And .22 pellets may be fun to shoot out of it too whether the barrel is rifled or not.
Any idea if the barrel is rifled?
I think that 777 would be a good powder to try shooting it with because it burns relatively cleaner and is 15% more potent than the others.
Good luck and have fun with it!

does anyone have one of these or has any info on them? i cant seam to find anything anywhere other than everytime i search the description i get the ad...lol...
SB, it is amazing how we have the same taste in guns, I was eying that piece on the auction block and you bought it also, As great minds think alike, demented ones do also. I decided to analyze myself and what I know of you in able to determine which category you and I belong.
Only a demented soul would subject all of us to this,
Do they make these for an 1858 Remmy?
and dupe me into a serious response as found here
then you reveal it was a twisted plot;
I owe you one there. I can let by gones be by gones, my new friend. You have shared enough of your self here to have my friendship. I mean you really, dug deep and revealed some of your most intimate thoughts as quoted here
New to the Froum
This one ought to put the fear of God in them.Be careful not wave this one around or display any intimidating behaviour 
while totin this cannon as the penalties can be severe for enticing public panic.
Cheers my friend,
that is a nice piece and I would love to have two or three like it You never know; it may save your life one day.

Code:
Since you are going to cut your barrel, mounting the front sight on the side would be an option, but the cylinder would be in the way of a true alignment with a rear sight notched into the frame and a fixed sight would be too high unless you have a raised front sight. I don't really see how you could do it..I know I was the dummy you refered to... you twisted rascal.

oh no my favorite thing to do when i get a new gun is to run outside showing it off to everyone. the best way to do this is run up and down the street screaming at the top of my lungs "I GOT A GUN!!!! I GOT A GUN!!!!" and wave it around...

you know that derringer wil prolly go up for sale in a month or so... i'll give you first option on it... i have a line on another remmy, a cimmaron, locally i'm working a deal on as we speak. its in no where near as good condition as the lyman so it might be the shorty i was thinking or maybe for resale i just havent made up my mind yet... thats is if i get it of course...
i'll tell you what i am looking for is one of those cobray .44 sxs derringers in b.p....

You didn't mention the price of the Cimmeron. If this one is priced higher than the range you paid for the Lyman and if the Cimmeron is the lesser in quality, why not bid your time and hunt for another Lyman?
After buying my first one, I knew what I wanted my next one to be. I avoided the instant gratification urge and waited until I found another one. There was a lot of eye candy to fed the fever, but I do not regret waiting for the quality I desired.
Have you handled the Cimmeron yourself or is the quality difference an assumption?
I am asking because I would like to know, not because I am trying to assume an opposite viewpoint. I have never seen one other than a picture.

well the cimaron is beat to hell, it'll need new grips and rebluing bad, it is soooo dirty and grimy i couldnt tell if its is smoother or not... right now it sure isn't but i won't know until it's all cleaned up... i'm working a "i'll trade you this for that" kinda thing... he wants 150 for it but its really not worth it to me so i'm trying to trade him a mossberg barrel i have for it... i'm also selling the barrel on auction arms but we'll see....
You could use it for parts or as s throw around gun if you can swap for it. Otherwise you may want to hold out for another Lyman. I'd also watch gunboker; that's where I got mine.
Grips and reblueing aren't a big thing, the Lyman and the Cimmeron would be close to being if not eqal in quality. I think they are pretty much the same gun.

yeah i just deleted my gb acct over their new "you have to give us a credit card to use our service" crap. i have had a debit card with them for years and now suddenly that isnt good enough, and i just got the iver a month or so ago for gb... what ever i definatly get better deals on auction arms...lol...
If your mailbox is on your domain, there is no credit card requirement. The purpose of it is for age verification. I guess they figure if you own your own domain, you are legit and of legal age. I don't think there is much risk of using a public domain based mailbox secured with a credit or debit card.

The plain steel of that Remmy looks really nice RemTim, sort of like the London Gray.
A debit card with a Mastercard or Visa logo on it counts as a credit card. The merchant doesn't know the difference. Gunbroker simply charges $1 to test the card to see that it's good and issues a future credit. So using a debit card to open a Gunbroker account is totally acceptable. Now go & reopen your account!

Thanks, Articap, Thank you for turning us on to Evaporust. That stuff it totally amazing. This finish is more line of what I wanted. Here it is in different lighting.

no the debit card deosnt count i went back and forth with gb for 2 weeks over it and finally told them "hell with it, close the acct," i have had that acct since 1997 and when my new debit card came i got this message saying i needed a credit card on file because i use hotmail as my e-mail, i always used the same e-mail from the beginning and it was never a problem before and like i said i just bought the pearl gripped iver johnson a week before all this went on. i have made over 100 purchases and 50+ sales, it only started when i had to register my new debit card because the old one expired...
and further more i tried to register it 6 times before i sent a letter to support and when they told me i needed a credit card that a debit isn't good anough i told them to refund the 6 dollars in "registration fees" and they told me they couldnt... so i called the bank and got the money back in the acct that way... trust me g.b. is going the way of feebay... try it, go open a new acct, use hotmail to set it up and try to register it with a debit card... you'll see what i mean then try to get the dollar back....

I'm sorry to hear that they've changed their policy.
Then the problem may be because you're only using a Hotmail account instead of giving them your main internet provider email account that is associated with a billing address.
I registered with Gunbroker using my main internet provider email account, and they also allow me to use a secondary "public" email address for privacy reasons that is different.
So maybe if you register using your "home" email account from your internet provider then using a debit card wouldn't be an issue.
