Thank you Big Al2 If you run a search on here for "punt" there's a mass of information that might have the information or point you in the right direction for what you're looking for? Welcome to PW.

cash1 Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 Any engineering workshop will be able to make one providing you give them adequate drawings. The gun breech won't need square or buttress threads, the strongest are Whitworth that's why they're still used today on high pressure systems. The chamber isn't necessary either.

Big Al2 Posted March 12 Author Report Share Posted March 12 Thank you so much.The hardest thing is finding wondering if guys are still building them..I have a 4-bore in-line 4-bore shoulder muzzle loading..Can what I was going change the barrel length.But I was wondering if a 4-bore action would be suitable for turning it into a pint gun action.
