Title: Cap Lock
Post by: Carper on January 27, 2025, 06:03:31 AM

Bob Roller had asked to see the rifle his lock and triggers were mounted in. I made it for some boys to shoot at the Alvin York match.   I cut the 1” 50 caliber barrel by hand. The hardware I forged .  I tested this barrel before I finished stocking it and was happy with the groups it would give.   The main thing I want say in this post is Bob simply made an unrivaled product.

Fine job and the hammer is one Bill Large made the mould master for.I liked the "Eastern"rifle appearance and used a lot of them.
Thank you for the nice remarks about my work.It shows what I thought of myself and the buyer.Today,labor intensive shop work is
no longer on my "to do"list.Two months from today and my 89th year arrives.
