Wizard Chamberings

Post by Ohio3Wheels »

Curious as to what chamberings the Wizard was produced in. I tried a couple of searches but the engines says Wizard is too common so it ignores it along with caliber.

The link worked and it brings up another question. How did the rim fire barrels work with the center fire firing pin?

The chambers were offset as to let the firing pin hit rim

I figured it was something like that. I guess if it is offset vertically it wouldn't affect the sights Just a little less or more distance from center bore to sight line.
