 I like what you are doing here,DAVE RASE! Show us the barrel trans and muzzle,k? How long is that barrel? Guessing it's looong. BTW,I 'm not sure how you pronounce your name, but to me you are Dave RAZE!...sorry,that's just how it is.
Roy,  The name is pronounced RayCee.  I've been called a lot worse then RAZE so no apology necessary.  I applied the last coat of finish to the stock this evening.  All the metal except the lock is complete.  I completed polishing the lock and blocking the plate this evening so tomorrow I will color case harden the lock and screws and then polish those pieces back to gray.  I have taken Thursday off from work to assemble the gun.  It will be complete just in time to take to the Oregon Gunmakers Fair on Friday.  If time permits I will post pictures Thursday.

That looks good, I just used the jelly on polished parts in an uneven applicartion to get a bit of wear effect , it works for me, doesn't look 200 years old. I think the true French grey is a later finish probably 19th century?
