Percussion to cartridge conversions
07/11/13 06:21 AM

I have seen some period rifles which are described as "cartridge conversions", the Alex Henry - converted by Fraser - which went at auction recently comes to mind.

Does anybody here have knowledge as to how it was done and what parts of the original action and barrel were retained?
