1/2 Stock Fowler

[F.G. Ford]

I wish to build a 1/2 stock 12 ga. flint fowler.
I have a 12 ga. 30" round barrel, and a L&R Durs Egg lock.
I wolud like to build a fowler with these parts.
What I do need is a model to pattern my piece arround.
Would any of you fine people have any suggestions and pictures.
Thank you
Old Ford

Here's one I built many years ago.

I've always admired the fowlers but have really never been drawn to one. That 1/2 stock you built may have just changed that and added another darn gun to the wish list.

Hello Mike,
Thank you very much for the valued pictures.
It is exactly what I was looking for.
I am making this fowler for myself and my own appreciation.
Does this particular design replicate any exact time period, or model?
I really enjoy your concept of this fowler.
Thank You
