    WTB 1861 Springfield Miller Conversion breech block assembly

    I have a 1861 Springfield musket with a Miller Conversion barrel and breech but it is missing the entire breech block assembly. If you have one and want to sell it drop me a PM. I'll be at Nationals next week.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Try soaking the action in a 50/50 mixture of ATF and acetone.
