California Kid:
Great job Fred! Great architecture. How thin were you able to get the web at the breech?

flehto:
First off, I should have given Tim Adlam credit for the engraving...unintentional omission. The web at the breech was slightly less than 3/32"and a "different kind of bbl lug had to be used to accommodate the .062 dia. pin. Thanks for the kind words....Fred

smylee grouch:
Very nice Fred,loved your carving and the engraver makes straight lines straight, some thing I struggle with. Keep up the great work.   Flintlocks Forever    Gary

Larry Pletcher:
Fred,
Very nice work.   I'm guessing that rifle will look even better in hand than in the photographs.  Any chance that rifle will be at Friendship this spring?

Regards,
Pletch

flehto:
Larry and Gary...I've still  got this BC LR and had an offer but don't want to sell it just yet.  Normally don't have any qualms selling  but this one kinda "stayed home". Won't be attending Friendship.  Thanks for the kind words....Fred
