Dad, it was great following along on your discovery process. I was worried with all the work/difficulty of making the right setup to remove the breech plug or the uncertainty of shooting it out. That was cool you were able to get to it with the nipple removed and the punch. I was following along and was thinking a hangar might have been an option too to push it from the breech. Anyway, great read and happy you have it safely together with no new scratches! Wish we were out in the grass shooting again. Like my username? Aron
