French fusil de trait

[captpete]

Speaking of interpretations, what is the differences between the rifle you've built and say the C/fin version of the French Fusil?
BTW, I really admire your work!

The difference between a de trait and a fin is basically a quality thing. The fin will have a bridal on the tumbler, better barrel and the decoration will be more skill full and better executed. There will also be a over all  higher degree of fit and finish.
