Stained with AF. One coat of 50-50 boiled oil and Grumbachers painters medium III with about 25% aged turp. Used this stuff for a seal since it dries a little harder and the wood has some strength issues in a place or two where its carved.
Its still in the final assembly stage.
Have fire restrictions in place and don't think I am allowed to shoot outdoors unless it rains.
The white flecks on the wrist are from dry firing with a maple "flint'.
Its not an exact copy of anything. Though I borrowed a lot from the Antes.
The action is 2" deep at the breeches of the barrels. Barrels are 50 cal about 15/16 at the breech and taper to 3/4, 40" long with the breeches. I make file some swamp into them for weight reduction. Not sure yet.
