Vincent done
« on: April 30, 2020, 09:59:55 PM »
Here it is.  I did not go for perfect this time.  Hopefully the brass will age better.  This one has the BC plum brown then boiled finish.  I could not bring myself to wear the barrel finish, yet.

You made a fine, credible looking rifle there Scota4570!  Nice work.

Could you show some details on how the patchbox lid works?

It is a simple cam over the spring design.  The indicated cut is to insert a thumbnail.







The suggested spring used space in the storage area of the box so I did it my way instead.

Nice to have it finished so well Scota.  Thanks for giving us a look-see.

Indeed a very nice build. I like to use that method on the patchbox spring also. Makes more room for stuff ,like a snickers bar, in the box. Have a great day my friends. Dave F 8) 8)
