Peter Resor Photos
« on: December 26, 2010, 02:45:36 AM »
I am looking for some more detailed photos of the Peter Resor rifle on page 93, plate 22a in Thoughts on the Kentucky Rifle.

Photos are not that good for details of the carving.

Any help or direction???

Dane, If this is the Resor rifle with the "Ghost" patchbox, it is pictured in color in the book "Steel Canvas" by R.L. Wilson.

Captjoel,

No, this one has a pretty typical daisy type patchbox.  I'll check "Steel Canvas" though, carving styles may be similar.  Would still like to find the  original if possible.
