62 caliber Smooth Bore
Mike Yancey:
More if you want much of a cheek piece. Thus gun won't have one since it's a Fowler style.
Mike Yancey:
Put the breech plug back on and inlet it and the tang. Ready to pin the barrel and inlet the lock.
This lock is a Chambers Golden Age lock and it fits this layout perfectly.
Mike Yancey:
Got the lock in yesterday and pinned the barrel. Then I shaped the lock side of the gun that was way thicker than the other to make it look right. Also thinned down the front of the stock.
Drilled and tapped for the lock bolts. Made perfect hits, just under the barrel on the front bolt missing the ramrod hole!
Mike Yancey:
Made the side plate today and got it ready to inlet. I also got the trigger in last night and working great with the lock and cut the butt of the stock to length and inlet the butt plate.Now on to the trigger guard and more panel shaping.
Hawkdancer:
Looking real good! That will be a fine weapon when it is finished! Ready for quail, rabbits, or whatever!
