Hi there

I have just acquired my FAC and have lots of newbie queries!

I am looking for a fairly inexpensive percussion pistol, ideally more of a pocket size as my holsters were made for trinity peacemakers. I wondered if anyone has any recommendation? I was thinking about a second hand uberti.

Also how easy is it to find accoutrements, as most gun dealers in Gloucestershire have no idea what I am talking about!

Finally I need some advice as I would like to make blanks, capable of bursting a balloon, but as quiet as possible (no projectiles allowed!). Any help would be most appreciated, as up until now I've been used cartridge revolvers!
