Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'?

With Bob it's usually the other way around.

The best time to get Bobby is around 0730 am, before he fires up his machinery.

I had Robert Hoyt make the barrels for my French double gun AND my French wheellock gun.  In both cases the product of his craft is top notch! In both cases the barrels arrived sooner than I expected.  You will be very pleased with what ever you get from his shop!
