Not a concern. I buy what I want and build for me. Someday some one might get a deal at an auction but I'll be long gone and could care less. This is a hobby. I don't do it for profit.

I just bought an unfinished kit; NOS CVA big bore, sold on this site. I have every intention of building and shooting it. Not collecting things to sit in a box.

I just received a CVA Big Bore 54 cal kit from member bptactical. It arrived via UPS as stated, well wrapped and complete. Bptactical was great to deal with. Thanks and kudos!

Yep. I am going to apply for position as chief shooter/tester!

Looking good!

Draw filed the flats on my PA Fowler. May hold off to brown it once the inevitable heat and humidity rise in NC.

If the rod is that warped, best to get a new one. But you could try sanding the ramrod if the warp is minimal.

Bob, you've got to stop doing this to us. Another beautiful horn? You are turning them out like sausages! Love the quilt pattern, fantastic as always. Rick

Well done, color is beautiful.

As always, so fun to watch. It is a little humbling considering how much (wasted) time we spend pontificating on the thickness of the cardboard wad, or the method of weighing shot, or sprue location or... Heck I was gonna ask how many grams of grass he was using!

Very nice looking fowler. Great save.

Tell that kid to take his hat off inside a fine eatin' establishment!!!
