Caps and cyl for Rem 44?

[89diesel]

Does anyone know where I can get #11 caps for a 1858 Remy? Also, is there a Can supplier that has cylinders for the same? I have heard that the repro Pietta and Ubertti's have different timing. But could be misinformed.
I have a lathe and soon a mill and wanted to modify/build my own conversion cyl.

piettas and ubertis timing are the same cylinder length is different though.
try dixie gun works for whatever cylinder you need,as for caps sir/cabelas has them.

Dixie Gunworks has reasonably priced cylinders and will ship to Canada. Caps can be bought from SIR/Cabelas, Russel's etc.
You can buy a real conversion cylinder from Buffalo Arms fairly cheaply. I don't know that a cap and ball cylinder would hold up under pressure, so to speak.

I just checked out that web site again. Maybe they're not so cheap after all.
