FOR SALE White breech plugs

[bestill]

Few months ago I had a white owner Ed Mehlig contact me about modifying his #11 breech plug to accept a replaceable nipple which we did then asked about doing it for musket nipple which we did but required a different modifications.

So we discussed the option of making a replacement plug that could use either treso #11 nipple or treso musket nipple.

So after testing a couple prototypes we had the desired specs.
While trying to keep plug cost down but offer the highest quality part.
The plug is made of pre hardened 17-4 stainless steel which is awesome material for this application. I did my best to keep price as low as possible but material and cnc programming and low quantity production this is best i could do.

I have no intention of doing a 209 primer option or doing a vent liner plug.
I believe this plug with replacement nipples should last a lifetime.

Plugs are available for $50 shipped to your door also nipple available
$5 for Treso 1/4-28 #11 nipple
$5 for Treso 1/4-28 musket nipple

Just received my plug and 2 #11 nipples!
Looks almost too pretty to install in that nasty ole WhiteLightning

Let everyone know if you are happy with the way it works. I know it worked just fine in my Grandsons Whitetail and M97's. Just remember to put grease on the #11 nipple and breech plug.

Ive installed mine in my WhiteLightning. It is about 1/6" longer than the original. I put anti-seize on the nipple and teflon tape on the bp. will see how it works on Sunday.

Popped of half dozen caps in it this evening. Worked perfectly. Comes apart with a box 3/8" wrench and a 1/4" open wrench easily. I can even pull the nipple w/o pulling the breechplug, which is good cuz it (assembled plug) won't go in to the rifle while the bolt is in the gun. Cleanup is quick.

I remove all of my bolts after firing and use a 3/8 Deep socket wrench with the extended arm to remove the breechplug.

With my peep sight on it's bit harder to remove my bolt.

Will see what my s91 is like when i get it back tho

 

[edmehlig]

Shouldn’t be a problem. I’m using one with my M98 but I’m using a scope.

I had a Williams FP on the Whitelightning but the S91 is getting a Lyman 57. I think the S91 will have the sight farther fwd so the plug is easier to get hold of.
