No similarity at all to any "Frankensteins"that I ever saw in old movies.Looks like a good job of rifle making to me

Terry I really like how your rifle turned out. I've enjoyed reading the progress posts along the way too!

Nice work!

Looks pretty good to me, Terry.

Terry....a really nice, slender Bucks County LR. Where did you get the Bplate? Dr. Frankenstein was only good at putting human parts together to build monsters. Your BC would be too difficult for him to build......Fred

I think you did a great job.
I do know where you are coming from and thinking it is a Frankenstein gun. At a certain point in a build, I start getting sick of the project. It seems the closer I get to getting finished the slower things tend to progress. It takes more energy to accomplish the small details, than at the beginning.
No monster, that is a well-done rifle to be proud of.

Looks good. Any more pics?

Love the color of the finish on the wood and metal parts. Despite being Frankenstein it all goes well together.

Victor Frankenstein is actually Dr. Frankenstein. The monster he created is actually nameless. All that aside, from my point of view your rifle looks great. More photos would be nice.

Looks real good Terry! Can't wait to see it in person.

First class for sure!

"That's Fronkenschtein." Seriously, nice looking rifle.

Very nicely done yip. Love that long wrist and the way you made the lower forestock roundish, avoiding that slab-sided look you often see on contemporary rifles.

yip · « **Reply #18 on:** April 12, 2022, 09:10:36 PM »

boy it's amazing how a little stain and a distant view makes thing look nice.

oldtravler61 · « **Reply #19 on:** April 12, 2022, 09:48:55 PM »

Yup that is a fine looking rifle... You want to see a real Frankenstein rifle I will send you a pic of mine....Ha Ha Ha

Bob Gerard · « **Reply #21 on:** April 13, 2022, 01:44:02 AM »

Shoot, that’s nice. Can you show some more photos?

yip · « **Reply #22 on:** April 13, 2022, 08:25:30 PM »

IT'S ALIVE! fired 4 shots today, first one was a little low the other 3 shot high and a liitle left. the load was very loose going down might try a tighter patch next time. but it is ALIVE!

Chocktaw Brave · « **Reply #23 on:** April 14, 2022, 08:42:55 AM »

Fine looking rifle! And if that’s at 100 yards, a fine shooter! Even at 50 that’s a good group, and with the right patch/ball/powder combination could cloverleaf.

oops i forgot to mension the target was a 100yd taret but at 25yds
