CCF it's hard to think how long I have been playing with and building Black Powder Rifles. I shot my first BP rifle at 17 and built my first rifle at 20. I will be 71 in June, so I have been building for almost 51 years. I have enjoyed every minute and I pray the Good Lord blesses me with many more years of building. I have met many good and talented people on my building journey and I am continuously delighted to see all of the good young builders that are coming along today. It is a great time for young builders, they have a wealth of knowledge available. Anyway, when I ran across the pictures of this rifle I decided to post the pictures because it's a little different than what many iron guns that are being built today. Always looking forward to my next build.
