The builder sends updates. I will not ask when it will be ready. It will be ready when it's ready, but if I'm guessing...this summer, a three-year wait. I'll go get it. sight it in, and spend a few weeks shooting it with the builder, learn how to clean and maintain it, find the nearest outdoor firing range to my house and go.

@Thingamajiggy, When he asked what I wanted, I asked for a functional flintlock rifle that I could go target shooting with. He took me shooting the summer of '19 when I was visiting family and that was all it took for me to want one. Anticipation is high for sure. I had a build space but had to relinquish it, lost a year. He is building it how he wants to build it and I have no say, which is perfectly fine by me. I do not know where he gets his inspiration, he's an artist. I think he is building a museum quality authentic long rifle that will surely last several generations of my family. It's amazing how this rifle started as the trunk of a curly maple tree. BTW, I'm on a five year wait list for a pistol.

Progress on the trigger assembly. We're getting close. Patch box is next.
