It is a percussion. I'll have to try that. I was debating cutting up some old cork to try as well.
Also, turns out it's a 14ga, so I'll have to change my order.
While I was unpacking it I noticed that the right nipple and hammer don't line up properly, and there's a seam on the back end of the breech blocks. By comparing the decorations, it looks like the breech block has been twisted a bit. Any ideas on how to fix it if I can?
