that's really cool. Don't think I've ever seen a swivel pistol. You said finished, are you going to apply a finish to the stock?

That is beyond beautiful Sydney! Well Done! I can't imagine how many hours you spent making all of that. From here the fit and finish are outstanding.

Art is not an object.  It is the excitement inspired by the object.

I like it, your other post with the finished pistol in the case is impressive too.  Any comments you have on the design and build of the swivel breech would be very interesting.

If you reduce the ALR page (using your cursor to make it exactly 1/2 monitor size )on one side of your monitor, and the reduced page of Photobucket on the other, you can merely transfer the picture url's across from photobucket to your 'reply' on this site making a list one above the othe in your reply, then when you post it, there will be multiple pictures in a single answer. This is how I list pictures in a single post using my PC. An apple comp. might be different.

JUST OUTSTANDING! Glad you didn't junk it up with a lot of engraving and wire inlay.

Occasionally I see something that makes me want to build something similar. This is so cool and definately one of those things.

Nice work on the pistol, looks somewhat modernistic.   There is a real nice swivel pistol in the state museum in Harrisburg.
At least, there "was" one.  ...Don
