Jack Duprey .54 pistol
« on: May 01, 2025, 10:51:09 AM »
I am over the moon with my pick up of this beautiful .54 smoothbore pistol from Jack. It’s stocked in curly ash that Jack found in his firewood. The barrel is from Ken Netting, the lock I believe Jack said is a heavily modified L&R Durs Egg. I certainly consider myself very lucky to be able to have a piece of art from Jack.

Agreed! Lucky for the wood to live on. And I wish I knew, oldtravler can probably tell us.

Thank you all for the kind words.

Dan- thank you indeed, it’s the culmination of seeing Bobs video on the Soddy that sparked my interest in Jacks work, and now im lucky enough to have a piece and to call that amazing man my friend.
