A shot in the Dark
« on: March 15, 2012, 02:16:29 AM »
I figure it cannot hurt to ask.
a friend and I are waiting for  Riffle Shoppe parts.They cannot get a 51" Barrel made.We were promised the dimensions of a barrel for said gun as per the original piece. they have been anything but expedient in getting them to us.
The question is: does anyone have the barrel dimensions to their "French officer's fusil"[actually its an anchor marked trade gun]  I believe its the gun  in Nueman's " Battle weapons of the American  Revolution.
We would be forever in your debt if someone could assist.
Thank you in advance.

I have a man to make a barrel up to  60". i need the dimensions off the original piece.
I should have been more clearer.
Thanks, Alex
