This YouTube video details a chamber sleeve job performed on a Peabody rifle. The rifle was originally chambered in an obscure cartridge and has been modified to accept the .45/70 round, making it functional for shooting. The creators emphasize that this is not a tutorial and advise against attempting the modification if the viewer lacks the necessary skills. They also provide a link to their Patreon for support.
This video focuses on the Slocum Rimfire Revolver, a notable firearm from the Brooklyn Arms Company. Designed by Frank Slocum, it offered a practical solution to overcome Rollin White's patent on bored-through cylinders. A key feature highlighted is its compatibility with standard .32 rimfire cartridges, achieved through an innovative chamber sleeve design that uses removable chamber pieces. This made it more accessible than other designs that required proprietary ammunition.
