Nice! Bet she is very happy! Did you have to work the triggerguard down to scale? I had to down scale everything on my kids rifle

Actually I had that Lehigh guard laying in the shop and she fit perfectly. I don't know where I got it or who I got it from.

Nice piece of functional sculpture .....and terrific that it is for your Daughter!!

[dogcreek]

That is a great muzzleloader for a youngster! I hope she gets lots of small game with it.

I love it!  Thank you for sharing.

That's a nice little gun and a great gift that will be treasured far into the future.

There was finally a break in the weather yesterday and Abby and I finally had the opportunity to shoot her rifle after school. We didn't have a lot of time to work with a load so we kinda just had fun playing around. She was knocking down cans and milk jugs and grinning from ear to ear. I do believe we have a new black powder shooter on our hands. She's already asking about a bag and horn and all the other accouterments she needs. Kids, they're never satisfied.

Beautiful. She will treasure it forever.

Thank you sir.

Wonderful gun for a child!  I can still remember thinking I was king of the world when my Christmas present was a Red Ryder.

One proud little girl and she never missed!!!!! Not bad for shooting a flintlock for the first time.

Absolutely!

A good instructor always keeps targets large and close for beginners.  I just spoke with my ex-step-daughter who is now a young lady some 10 years later.  She still has great memories of our outings with a rifle.

I had her dry-fire a couple of times as well...

Me:  Did the sights stay on the target? 
Her: Yes they did. 
Me:  OK, we're ready.   ;Ds

Using 7 1/2 shot doesn't hurt either.

And SHE is adorable too!  Dad obviously didn't notice, but she's left handed.

Yep, Dad noticed but when she's ready to part with it and move onto a full size rifle, it's easier to sell a right handed gun vs a left handed. Just thinking ahead, that's all.

A pretty young lady and a very cool looking rifle.

I'm not sure she'll ever want to part with it!  That looks like something she should keep a lifetime and pass on. 

That's an inspiration for my own children.  They still have a few years yet. I keep telling myself that I have time.

I wouldn't bet on the left hand rifles not selling.  I notice here that the seem to sell.  Most lefts can't buy a production rifle, so have to look for a custom built one.

Keith,
She's already asking how much do I think she could get for it when she's ready to move on to a larger rifle. So we'll see.

Oh yea, when it comes to money she doesn't miss a trick. She's a lot like her mother.
