Got new repo - 1863 Sporting Sharps made by Pedersoli cal 45. Beautiful rifle, but ignition does not work at all. I have Pedersoli 1859 Sharps carbine, it needs a one cap warm-up, after that works flawlessly. But this Sporting rifle shoots only after every 4-5 attempts after I have wasted several caps for empty shots. I have opened and cleaned the block, but it didn't help. RWS 1218 caps are used.
Also there seems to be blow-back issue as when shooting then hot sparks from caps fly to my forehead. This does not happen with my 1859 carbine.
Any ideas, how to get this thing to work?
