If it's not in the box, call Cimarron and they'll send you one no charge.

And I keep one of those tiny tools on my key ring. Comes in handy.

Yea, all of these different ones I've fired. It would load all rounds perfectly. It is the extraction/ejection that is the issue. Will happen even if I single load or it's the last round. I've even single loaded an empty case into the chamber and with the action partially worked (opens enough for case to fall out but no pressure from ejector) the case will fall out. But when action is fully worked it sticks to the point you have to work back to where the action is only partially worked to extract.

And I would love to post them! But the website is a little dated, and won't take modern file sizes, and I have no idea how to dumb them down, haven't had to do that or use a file storage linked site in a decade or two! If I can figure it out I'll be sure to post them, thanks,

Thanks Major but I don't really need one. (If I get a Henry some day I may change my mind  ;D  )

I vaguely remember I did send them to different folks.
I do recall sending the boxes & labels to Mike.
Or maybe handed them over when he was on Mouse Safaree.

I think I still have some you want some ?

   That fire-blue is lovely! We had a Cimarron (?) "7th Cav" come in, with the big screw pin retainer in standard blue. I'm staring at it really hard...

             M.T.M.
All new BP-framed guns come from Italy with the knurled screw in place.  I believe it has something to do with an import requirement requiring a safety that can be activated without additional tools.  That is why Opentops and conversions used to have a tiny "screwdriver" in the box so you could fold the safety wedge forward in the hammer.  Although I haven't seen one of those little tools in ages.  Anyways, the proper flush mount screw will be in a little baggie in the cutout on the lower left side of the box (and probably a stupid red safety lock that I think gets put in all boxes because some states require it).

Cimarron sells Cavalry models from both Uberti and Pietta, though only the Uberti makes the charcoal blue.

Quote from: Major 2 on April 24, 2025, 10:38:44 AMYep, I made some of those, still have some
Maybe you posted that picture and I got it from here?  Could be.  ;)  Stand by...

Okay, I just went back to the Oct.2009 time frame on this forum (the date on my pic) and I see where someone wanted a Henry label by New Haven Cart. Co. and you said you weren't able to post it here for some reason but you sent it to him.  There are a number of other broken links and missing pics from around that time frame, but I'm guessing this one maybe came from you.

Quote from: Mwf203 on April 24, 2025, 08:38:47 AMThese are fired rounds. I just took some of the casings and single loaded one (Winchester), when I operate the lever it freezes and won't budge. But if I cycle the lever slightly forward where the ejector isn't touching the casing yet and then tilt the rifle up the casing will drop right out the back.

I think he means he fired them and had the problem, then he also tried what he just described with one of his fired brass.
