I also like your rifle. Hope you can keep it up for another 30+ years.

Not so sure I could let that beauty go.  And I noticed the lock, too; twisted my brain trying to figure out why it looked so different.

Well Dave, it's going to be a while. I have a couple of smoothbores, a Tennessee , a Bedford, and a Lancaster to build for other people. Maybe in between builds I can do it.

It's a madness, A virus, maybe borne with?, I always have something sitting in one of the dinning room chairs, I tinker with stuff off and on......then I get out in the shop and spend 6-8 hours before I know it!
But it stays a hobby, I decided not to let it rule me......heh, I gotta go......I need to go check on the parts that I have browning.......
