Once again I need the guidance from you fine folks. I have my great grandfathers Hopkins Allen 12ga side by side. I know they were not the best shotguns available but this one has some family history so I want to shoot it. I am going to shoot it with a black powder load. I have a box of brass 12ga hulls I have never used so I want to try them. From what I have found in my research these traditionally had the overshot card glued down with water glass glue. I have tracked down water glass. It seems to come by the gallon. I don't need a gallon. What are you guys using for glue?
I want to get these loads worked out so his (my great grandfather) great-great-great-grandson can shoot the gun!
Thanks,
