What do you want to know? Black powder residue has to be washed off with some warm water on the same day of shooting. After that is very important to dry the wet steel parts quickly on the inside and outside. You can find several tutorials on RUclips.

@@Flederratte I recently bought a similar cap and ball derringer and wasn’t sure how most people cleaned it. I heard some people simply remove the barrel and clean it by submerging it in hot soapy water while scrubbing it with a brush and putting lubricating oil on after drying it. However, I also heard some say to never clean a gun with water. What’s your method of cleaning this particular gun? How far do u dissemble the derringer to clean it and what other cleaning components besides water do u use? Thanks for responding!
@@erictong862 I did not fire it since. I need a shooting range and licenced person to fire it in my country. I personally enjoy taking apart the mechanical components so I would disassemble the gun, soak the barrel in warm water with some dishwashing soap and scrub the inside of the barrel with a brush usually used for cleaning laboratory test tubes. I would also remove the nipple. Then I would dry it with compressed air and apply a thin coat of Brunox Lub&Cor Oil. I would suggest to use water to clean black powder guns because the powder residue is corrosive and easily soluble in warm water. It is very important to clean all the residue and dry the metal quickly to prevent rust from forming on the wet steel surface. Because I enjoy it I would also remove the lock and check if it got dirty. I do not think this is necessary however. I think except from the barrel the rest of the gun could be sufficiently cleaned with a damp towel without disassembly.
Yes I did this in my other video. I wanted to demonstrate how loading works. You missed the part where I described that I can not load the gun for real outside of a shooting range.
@@Flederratte Did you end up pulling that load or did you leave it that way? And what do you think of the quality and function of this firearm? I am thinking about adding one to my collection, however now they are upwards of $650 and thats a lot of money for such a small gun.
@@nickf9392 Of course I did pull it out. You can see how I did this in my other video. Link is in the description. $650 is way too expensive for such a gun. Look at garage sales or auctions. Here in Germany they sell for about 70€ to 200€ depending on condition and manufacturer. I would not recommend the cheap replica from "Dikar", "Jukar" etc. of Spain.They have a very weak main spring. Rather look for Italian replica like "Davide Pedersoli". The Philadelphia Derringer is a fun paperweight and nice to play with for a short while but it is nothing special and the mechanics are very simple. Shooting will not give you great results in accuracy or power but it can be fun for a few shots because how tiny the thing is. The energy is more like shooting a slingshot but with a loud bang. If you get one for cheap take it. Otherwise I would not recommend to buy one.
I once read a little more about the company after searching for ages on the internet. There is very little to find about the manufacturers and proof houses.
I had a philadelphia Deranger it had a Octagon barrel it was also a black powder 45 The factory nipple that came with it. Was too small. I remember putting a load of powder in it. And a 45 caliber round ball. I took a spark plug and drove it in with a hammer. When I fired it that thing jumped up kicked like a Mule and totally missed the target about jump out of my hand.

How do you clean this gun? I couldn’t find any RUclips tutorials on it.

Does it have a breech plug at the end?
sure it dose. You can see the difference in colour between barrel and breach in the video. The breach plug is threaded inside the rear of the barrel.
Do you just seat a patched ball in the barrel over a load of plastic pellets? What did I miss?
Yes I did this in my other video. I wanted to demonstrate how loading works. You missed the part where I described that I can not load the gun for real outside of a shooting range.

I can find nothing on C.O.M in Italy online, do you have more information on that company?

How are you going to remove that ball?
I show it in my other video.
Lead is so soft it is easy to put a screw into the metal by hand. Similar to pulling a cork from a wine bottle.
Here you can see how it is done: ruclips.net/video/rHFnjU6rnoU/видео.html
