Mike:  your creative juices are wasted on prose...save 'em for gun building.
Yes, I believe you're correct. ;) Just returning a couple resent pokes in the eye. I think I'll remove my post and behave..... :P

Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'?

Some of my shooting buddys kept after me to shoot a flint lock and wore me down. This rifle has moved me from a competent shot to last place in any match! I built it with good components and just an few thoughts on what form it would have. First attempt at engraving shows clearly. Now after months of fussing with it I'm starting to hit things and it's growing on me.
