I think I have this .40 cal. Flinter finally done, It’s been a long term project. My first pic in the laptop was dated last June ! At any rate all that’s left is to drill the touch hole.
I’m looking forward to getting it sighted in and shooting at our monthly matches at Fort Tassinong here in NW Indiana.!!

I like the way your color came out. Stains can be very difficult. Good job 👍

That’s some pretty wood there, Mike. Came out very nice.
I think you’ll like the .40.

Pearl drums,
You are welcome anytime. ( it’s a long way for you ….maybr we could meet up “ in the middle” sometime. There must be someone in the “middle we could stop and have lunch with ?)
