I have an elderly (95 years young) friend who is very proud of the Burnside Carbine he's had since he was a kid. He rescued it from abandonment and neglect as it sat in an uncle's woodshed. He tells the story EVERY time we talk about guns. :D
I wanted to put together a dummy cartridge for him for Christmas. I found a modern reproduction brass case at Lodgewood Mfg. They had contact information for a bullet supplier who is, unfortunately, experiencing some serious health issues at the moment, so I've been unable to find a bullet.
I just called Dixie Gun Works and they're checking to see if they have a single one they can sell me (They normally sell them by the 100). If they don't come through, is there anyone here that could sell me one bullet for a Burnside cartridge?
Thanks,
Bob
