Re: Has anyone recrowned an 1866 trapdoor?

I'm concerned due to the 1866 having a sleeved barrel. I'm worried the sleeve may come lose if I recrown the barrel.

Has anyone recrowned an 1866 trapdoor?

I have a 1866 trapdoor with a great bore but the crown has some pretty bad dents. I have not been able to get this gun to group so I'm thinking of a recrown. Has anyone tried to recrown an 1866?

Re: Peep sights?

I use this Lyman Products EyePal Bow/Handgun Pack. It's a peep sight that just sticks on your shooting glasses. It's cheap, no modification needed to your gun and works great for my 65-year-old eyes.

Bayonet for 1866 Allin conversion?

What bayonet fits a 1866 Allin conversion? Can it use standard 1873 bayonets?
