Title: RWS 1081 Musket Caps
Post by: Bob Williams1 on November 29, 2017, 08:29:35 AM: Well, in a day or two my early Christmas present will be here a new CVA Accura V2 Northwest and wouldn't ya know it, a guy can't find the recommended musket caps any place on the planet.

I have looked at probably 8 different big name places on-line and several smaller ones too and absolutely can't believe they would be that difficult to find.

Rest assured i will be buying a good amount when i do get the chance.

I have some "notifications" enabled at various places which will send me a note when they receive some (Hopefully....let me see how'd that saying go, you can have hope in one hand...and pooh pooh in the other) but is anybody aware of an obscure place that may have RWS 1081 Musket Caps.

Send me a PM and i'll make sure the place remains a secret

Thanks guys i appreciate any help

I don't know where to go in your neighborhood, but you could call Bob's in Longview and see if they'll ship you some.

Greens in Oak Harbor. Call first.

You will have the best results going to stores that are less popular or out of the way. When you find them buy two three tins. They keep just fine.

This was a very successful "reach" for me, that many on here have provided something good in return. I appreciate that and hope to be able to return the favor to another member on here someday...some way no matter what "ask" is.

Thanks again fellas..

Bob
