Hi all!
Start building a replika of the first musket model build on the the Norwegian Kongsberg Våpenfabrikk in 1825. Its based on the Swedish mod 1815 musket. In photo on top the Swedish m/1815 and bottom is my scrath build m/1829.

Runar, why do you want to build that? you already got two!!!!
All joking aside, this will be a really cool project. I can't wait to see how you fabricate the brass barrel bands.
