Try contacting Track of the Wolf too. www.trackofthewolf.com 763-633-2500 www.dixiegunworks.com 800-238-6785 My good freind converted one to percussion a long time ago.

Cascabel Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Depending on the depth of the crack, and where it is, you may get away with using it for a very long time. One of my rifles has a curved crack across the face of the frizzen that has been there for over 30 years of heavy use without a problem. It never progressed to the point of going all the way through. It likely only goes as deep as the case hardening on the surface. >>>> Cascabel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rats Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 It's a pretty good crack and looks like it's kinda spiderwebbing across the whole frizzen. I got red tagged at Beaufort and though I've never had any negative issues, would like to avoid similiar recurrences or accidents. I'll give TotW a call No rest for the wicked!

Scupper Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Traditions has two size replacement frizzens i had to replace one of mine and it works great. Did have to enlarge the hole for the screw a bit to get it to fit. "That's the navy for you. Rum in the scuppers today. Blood in the scuppers tomorrow."Thrist is a shameless disease. So here's to a shameful cure!"Loyalty, honesty and directness are traits I admire. Insecurity, snipes and disrespect I will not tolerate in the least."
