Lancaster,

Thanks for posting. That is a greatr find. I enjoyed looking at your pictures, particularly those showing the needles. The action is the olde slide and tilt as used by Lancaster (That is Charles Lancaster) and Collath plus others.

Was all of the case consumed by firing or just pushed forward by the next case? Did anyouine make water resistant cases. I don't know much about that entire era of firearms.

I assume the ramrod was necessary to "eject" a bad case. Is that correct?
