Ended up changing my order to the 8 inch model and it ships out the end of this week they said . So three weeks total, not too bad. Cabela's has Winchester triple seven primers in stock here in west Virginia also. I can't wait to shoot the beast .
The pistol l came today and was not the quality I was expecting. The break action is all loose and the gun rattles around in my hand even when closed. I'm going to try and contact them today about fixing it or getting a replacement
Good explanation of loading. 👍. I will point out, though, that 3F works just fine. The guidelines of "2F or larger for 50 cal and above" and "3f for 50 cal and below" are just guidelines. Any reasonable grain size will work. The granules burn from the surface in to the center, so large bores benefit from larger grains and longer barrels by having more acceleration time. That's not going happen with the short barrels of the Diablo. You can go too small, though. 4F and Null-B are priming powders. They burn too quickly to be safe. 3F, 2F, 1.5F, and 1F would all be safe, but 3F in those short barrels will give the best performance.
I could be wrong but I think your message that came up saying it would fire when "half-cocked" is incorrect. I watched a different video and Half Cocked is supposed to be "safe". What the other video said is that it can fired when the hammer is all the way down because it is resting on the firing pins. So any sudden impact could cause it to go off.
I live in Bucks County, literally a foot step outside of Philadelphia, and I can get this delivered to my front door. Actually any kind of black powder pistol I can buy and get brought right to my door. Once I cross that line into Philly, forget it. You can't even buy airguns in Philadelphia. Its wrong... all the criminals got guns and they make it hard for every day people to defend themselves.
@@diontaehickmond9314 only thing about black powder in PA is they treat them as firearms when carried out in public. For example, a prohibited person could order it, but would get in trouble if he or she was caught with it up in PA.
Thanks for a precise description, including your concerns. When you say it can fire, half cocked, does that include in center position, so both barrels will fire at once?
I love mine I have a slightly older version my barrels are ribbed together not one solid piece like yours My grips are also two pieces. I'd like to own a longer one also. I have tested empty gun with primers and was never able to get the firing pin to set off a primer from half cock. Not saying it couldn't happen but I was very thorough.
Are you sure with the barrel switch on the left shoots the left barrel ,& the switch on the right shoots the right barrel ? Seems weird they would switch left and shoot right barrel! My double barrels have 2 triggers , when you press both triggers , the earth moves 👀!
@@TheDefenseCoalition Thank you my friend , are you doing or do you have a video shooting this fine pew pew ? I noticed your using FF powder , & said some folks are using FFF. That’s ally of pressure for a BP pistol ! I do a lot of reloads & black powder shoots are my fav pew pews ! I’ve got a couple BP pistols # 10 caps 44 mag love them pistols ! Thanks my friend !
Iron guns would pop with a large air space. Modern steel may bulge with a large air space. Not fun to delay into a huge flame out. Ball bouncing back is a pain!???!
Given the slow reload time, I wish they would have made it a 4 barrel deal instead of just 2. They should have also either made it 2 triggers (for 2 barrels) or one trigger with 4 hammers that all release off of the same trigger progressively as the trigger is pulled further and further.
@@The1saturn it would literally be 2 extra tubes, which are less than a foot long already. I could see that being a valid argument if they were full 18"+ each. It can't be that much extra and it's not something you're going to carry around with you anyway. That's to say nothing of the price. For the price and size of them, I found get a Mossberg shockwave (4-6capacity in one gun instead of only 2), a sling, and a dot for it and still have money left over for a pistol. That, or 2 pistols and 2 dots,
in the real world there are issues with having more than two barrels. hence why very few three and four barrel shotguns. I forget the technical terminology but getting the fired projectiles to hit the same area gets incredibly difficult hence most makers give up. "one trigger with 4 hammers that all release off of the same trigger progressively as the trigger is pulled further and further." once again making something that seems simple isn't
@@toomanyaccounts there are 3 and even 4 barreled shotguns (some stacked horizontally, some stacked). The real issue with it is having all that weight with a full length barrel, which isn't a problem here. There was even a patent for a 4 barrel car shotgun made out of cheap metal (zinc or something) that died out because of thr NFA. In the case of this black powder version, that's not an issue. There is a 3 barrel shotgun that has a revolving firing pin. In this case, you could probably get away with having a single trigger with a plate that touched all 4 hammers, and just have the timing on each hammer a little different so that as you pull the trigger further back, a different hammer drops off the plate. th-cam.com/video/PQK9JNsrq_8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=8pQTMh5vSgjngbja
I agree it’s not needed. When I loaded up without one, i started to lose loose grains of powder and it’s a mess. The powder stays in with a simple overshot card. That over powder wad is a bit thick but i do see what you mean as it being an extra expense.
Much appreciate the video. You do a better job explaining than the AGC website.
I ordered the 11 in model today. Your videos were the most informative. Thanks

I personally use FFF black powder in mine because its a pistol. I think FF is best for a long barrel so it has time to burn
@@aidanslaughter I’ve been hearing about FFF in these recently and I’m going to do it!!! Thanks a lot for tapping in.
@@TheDefenseCoalition I reccoment starting with 40 grains of FFF and a half oz shot but 60 grains and a full oz is as hot as i load mine
Are they drop safe? My guess is no

Whats the difference between this model and the other black just like it.
One is black and the other has a slight blue called blue black
What one do you recomend the oxide or blued . Also what one is this in the video . Thanks

@@BossNotes i will have video on this Diablo very soon in my shorts videos. I have the pedersoli video in my shorts though.
You need to order the desperado grip its a lil longer made a world of different mine
I have it on currently. I'll have to do a video on it. Just waiting on the cross draw holster which should be here soon hopefully.
Great review sir
Do they have it in 20 gauge?
Will they send to California?
Just in 12
@@dom-te8bu I believe so
at one point it was mentioned they had or were planning 20 gauge. there are howdah flintlock pistols in 20 gauge by Pedersoli called Howdah Hunter.
@@toomanyaccounts I think they will make a 20 soon. I have the howdah hunter as well I did an unboxing on it
Aye man i got a question, did you buy the gun that retails for $499.99 and it came with the ram rod or did u have the buy it on the site for $70?
I bought it when it was about $600 or more and the ram rod came with it.
They sent one with it

I wonder tho about gun ranges and the police. I really doubt they know their legal status and I can see massive hassle.
did I miss it what size balls is that ty
.690 roundball for the Diablo
being a muzzle loader kills it for me
If it weren’t, it would be illegal on a federal level bc it can’t be under a certain barrel length.

Pennsylvania should be good to go! Check the laws on carrying it if you’re buying for carry purposes because Philly is sticky.
Definitely, however Philly is dead bro and the crime out of this world , everyone is armed … I’m going to check
This it awesome man, I make custom 3d printed sabots, I could make you some to shoot triple .50 cal round balls out if that 😏

Where's the volume...
May have to check your settings or even use headphones. I hear it well.
If your blood pressure is good and your not shaking all over the place, why not? You want to make sure your shot lands though.
Yes indeed. Gotta make the shots count

try a paper cartridge, I wonder how much the reload time will be reduced
Probably a similar time to the fast load slug
