Third Flintlock
« on: May 04, 2017, 04:43:36 PM »
Searching on the internet I found a swivel breech rifle. I had never heard of it, and I did not now how it works. Randal Steffy, member, gave me the answer. I found pictures of the system on the site of ALR.













I met Paul Hamler[tools]. He makes very nice models. I asked him to rifling a little barrel.
He sent me a drawing of a rifling bench. He helped me a lot, and he still does.
Thanks Paul!!
