Pistol is looking very good. Enjoyed getting a glimpse of your reloading area.  I would feel at home there.

You are moving right along!  Great progress.

I think the kolrose will look very nice on that wood.  Tried some with coffee grounds a while back, really needed something darker in color.

Always a pleasure to see your work.

That pistol came out super Runar.  I really like it.  The checkering really shows nicely when finished.

Hello Runar,
the barrel is derived from a Belgian pistol that was officially released in 1976 on the 200th anniversary of the American Independance by Centaure (FAUL). The pistol is a replica of Gen. Washington pistols. Two of these are exhibited in the Westpoint-Museum and two of the belgium replicas are exhibited in Mount Vernon. As the originals the replica postol had massive silver bearings and is very rare today.
Your gun is great. Congratulations!
