A few progress photos

[ehoff]

Thought I post a few progress photos of my Christian's Springs style rifle. She's based partial on RCA Vol.1 no. 43 with some features from other Christian's Springs rifles.

Thanks for the kind words.

Looks good!! What kind of lock are you using?

 

[ehoff]

The lock is a Davis Colonial American lock.

Very nice so far, but you will do better if you do any carving after the entire stock is finish sanded, or scraped. You can leave the wood a tad high behind the cheek, but the rest should be to the finished shape and dimensions.
