I am ware of that, Fernando.
... But i was under the influence that carbine calibers were smaller... at least some (cavalry) models

She's got a ramrod now
The rod is an old genuine one; the other parts were made now.
The smith has applied some rusting product on the new parts and adviced me to no to oil them for a while, to enable the product to work.
