Ed,

Every time I see one of your guns I think "Wow....that one is the best yet !!!!  I'd like to have that one !!!"  This Jaeger is no exception.  Lovely in all respects.  Did you modify the cock ?  It looks more decorative and sculpted than others I have seen.

All the Best,

David

Many thanks, all…, Dave, no, I didn’t modify the cock.  This is the Chambers Germanic lock, which has a little more detail than the round faced English lock.  Might be that’s the difference?  Best,

Yes, it's hard to find any words that haven't been used yet. Such a treat just to view it. It looks so well done and cleanly done. Thanks for letting us see it.
