I collect ancient guns for over 45 years now , but never before i have seen such a stock/wood - Congratulations for Your outstanding work . Hope , it will shoot like it looks

I've found one on eBay : https://www.ebay.de/itm/Martys-Arms-0-290-Buckshot-Mold-16-cavity-Buck-Shot-Round-ball-lead-bullet/264643499411?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 Has no sprue cutter and can't be used as it comes , since there are no vents to the cavitys cut ...

PS.: the violin case was just a joke , since my shooting buddies always told me , that my modern gun carry case doesn't fit my gun ... And everything inside it ( let alone the old 100+ old scope ) is selfmade . ( I guess , I spent more time to build these than for the entire gun ... ) BUT ...

You're absolutely right , but I liked to rebuild it with some alterations , which I thought were not a bad idea to try ( trigger stop , attatchment to the frame body ) BUT : the system as is , seemed great for me to tinker with As You can see , I'm not too far away from the one at far left ...

Hi Felix and thank You for Your thoughts . After the "test fire" I unscrewed the barrel and pushed a lead plug , which I have already pushed through before the test which therefore must have had a perfect , snug fit . Pushing it through didn't give any sign of the bore being wider than before...

🤣🤣🤣 Otherways it could be a little painful ...

In the last few days , I tinkered a little machine , which easens rolling of my RB . Gears 2/1 for little money from eBay , the rest made from some scrap laminated wood . The top plate and the handle are made from boxwood , therefore I didn't need roller bearings , because this wood is already...

Gosh - lots of free hand filing been done ...

Finally , also the insert box for the loading tools has got its corect tint , suiting the rest of the case . Now I'm eagerly waiting for trying her out on range ...

I don't know , what should be wrong or complicated in screwing out the breech plug . Being not only a shooter but also a collector , occassionally I've already picked up a new gun for my collection with a clogged ignition tunnel or , even worse , being charged with whatsoever , and I REALLY...

Today , I've tinkered a goodie , which for long I wanted to have . I cast my RB for years now , but was always unhappy with the sprue . Therefore I thought , it were nice to have a tool for egalizing this and also to guarantee an absolute round shape of the ball . By fortune , I've found a...

Danke für das Kompliment . Hoffentlich öffnet unser Schießstand bald wieder , ich möchte das Teil so bald wie möglich mal ausprobieren ! (Thank you for the compliment . Hopefully our shooting range will open again soon, I want to try the part as soon as possible!)

Thank You very much for Your praises ! I hope , the shooting range will be open soon , I eagerly want to try it on target !

Thank You 😊

Let's come back to the original thread : When You compare the workmanship of the pistol , You will clearly see , that it has been made in a much superior quality as the ( probably new made( indish ) ) pistol shown in the note of rickystl with its crudely stamped but not engraved " George Rex...

me too ! But I didn't expect anything else 💣

I was quite busy over the last two days : I made and installed the nipple and top strap with the integral sight with its screws, a globe front sight , handle slabs with brass bushings and screw , filed the system to shape , installed a trigger stop , and started the finish - and yes , already...

Well , only for showing You my last week's work . Came out nice , didn't it ? Should You be interested in the making of , have a look to my thread " Goodies , I like to own " Goodies , I like to own Having started the project last Sunday evening , I think , it's been a rather short time to...

One of my favorite competition pistols by some" Knecht in St.Gallen" also has a pitted barrel . Shooting it with greased patches needs wiping after each shot , but when I load with spitted patch , it shoots like a charm with no cleaning between the shots either with really good results . I only...

Trigger with coil spring installed , safety and full cock noth filed , polished , hardened , also nipple installed . First cap fired !
