28 Ga. Profiles

[LynnC]

My catalogs are old (though it seems like I just got'em) and this fowler surge is recent. 

I'd like to build myself a fowler for shot and ball.  A fair load of shot and one that won't kick like a mule with ball loads.  Before I start, I'd like to make a drawing.

Who's making 28 gage barrels these days?  Who's catalog do I need to order?
Profiles are what I'm looking for.  Thanks ..............................Lynn

John has made me some great 28ga barrels in the past, he'd be the man to talk to.

Thanks Don & Mike - Will Do!

I'm thinking a light slim profile in the 42 - 48" range - Flint of course!

Don - sent you an e-mail or 2 or ? - had a computer glitch.  Aint dial-up great!
Anyway, I hope one went thru.  Let me know if you didn't get one.
Thanks,
Lynn

That "Flintlock Fowlers" book is sure an inspiration!  Course I have 6 guns I need to build and no time at the moment to do it- but still have about 20 "must make" guns on my list.

I hear ya Rich - The fowler book is what got me.

Have 2 projects going now to get out of the way and then (hopefully) the fowler.
Trying to plan ahead now.

Roger - My next one might be too!
