Well. Verdict is in.
Yes. Grips are not k frame. They are L.
Finally stopped by a us forestry service range to shoot frankin.
No way to remote fire so I did a hope it doesn't blow up firing.
Put on thick leather glove on my left hand ( I'm right handed) protecting my hand just in case.
Loaded a single round reaching around a big pine tree shielding me from the gun a pow.
No problems
Did this for all cylinders. No problems.
Was using angullia 96 gr round nose lead bullets.
Timing is a little rough. Still needs the insides cleaned derusted and oiled.
Action is gravely.
Shot about 40 shells. The only thing I noticed was that the empty shells from 2 cylinders were sooted up down the sides of the brass with each shot.
As for accuracy. With bi focals
It's hard to say. I was hitting an 8 in square 5/6 at 25 yrs with a rest. Not great but see the bi focals above.
Now to find a set of k grips.
It is a little nose heavy.
I saw a set of victory grips but I'm not sure I'd like them. Probably will find k frame.
More to come. I just need to reload some shells.
Maybe see what jacked bullets do.

What do you think about reaming to 32 H&R Mag ? Hum!!!!
