A while back I bought a collection of 1851 Navy parts from a co-worker. He was going to "refinish it" and lost some parts. I finally have all the parts to put it back into action.
regarding what 44Dave said about the mainspring, i have to agree. I know a lot of guys like the light actions, but I swear I shoot better with a slightly stiffer action. I never mess with the mainsprings, and unless they need replacing, I don't really fiddle with the other ones either. The one gun I have with a light mainspring is kind of finickiy on what kind of percussion cap it likes, which results in a little bit of aggravation at times
