The current story is they don't have any and have no plans to make any :-\

Surely one of you pards bought a set along with the drill alignment tool?
I have the drill alignment tool and now need the LONG tap and die set.

So before I start making, silver soldering, grinding, searching, etc. I thought I would ask to:

BEG
BORROW
STEAL
BUY
SMOOGE

Thanks ;D

Thanks!

I already checked with Midway and since R&D says they are no longer making the Tap and Drill, doubt that that date will be accurate :-[

   H H    I figure its as acurate as the 45 cal. gated conversion from R&D,that they listed in the catalogs for the last two years.                   Adios  Sgt.Jake

HH,

If you are looking for the setup for the 36 caliber, 1861 Colt (also the 1862 Police as sold by Cabela's) you might try Doug Stuter, Doug's Gunsmithing in Fairfield, CA.  Phone 707/426-5040.  He is open Thurs, Fri & Sat 10AM to 4PM.

He converted a pair of revolvers for me a couple of years ago to 38 Long Colt and he purchased the alignment fixture, the drill and the tap from R&D.  My guess is that he will never use them again and he may be willing to part with the whole package.

Anyway, you might give him a call.  Tell him Rich Heller of Napa, CA refered you.
