Plain horns
« on: February 11, 2012, 06:58:32 PM »
I been working on some plain double twist horns to hunt with an here is what I came up with. The first will hold my Fg powder that I shoot in my 12 ga smoothbore an the second will hold my FFg that shoots in my 54s. Both have pine buttplugs an are held in with brass nails. Both are right side double twist an the are airtight an fit my side like a glove. The straps is just some scrap leather I had around an needed used.  I just eyeballed everything so what ya see is what ya get. Just plain ole workin horns. Hope ya like.
