Getting back to it. Jacob Kuntz build
« on: June 26, 2024, 01:14:46 AM »
Got everything together, (I think,), but the lock. Not sure what to use for the lock. Have seen many photos with lots of different styles.
Any photos, and/or suggestions?

Did Kuntz use Germanic locks before he moved to Phild. :-\

I used a Chambers' Late Ketland on that rifle.
