Bedford profile help

[Lock Nut]

I need a little help from the Bedford Gurus.
I'm finally finishing a Bedford I started years ago and need help with the fore stock profile.( from entry pipe forward to muzzle cap) I've never held or seen an original. All the pics in books and plans I have on Bedfords don't show this profile close enough for me to know if I got it right. Any one got a pic of an original showing the bottom and side of the front stock?
Any help is much appreciated.

Go to the virtual library on ALR forum. Great picture resource.

Yeah it is, but many of the photos are lock, side plate and butt stock, definitely worth a look if you know the names of Bedford County makers, otherwise they're all listed under "Pennsylvania"

TOW used to have a set of Plans on building a Bedford. Now how accurate to an original, I cannot tell you.

Other plans I have seen from them before had sectional cut-out to show the profile & etc. for dif. areas. You might give them a call & just ask them to look at one of them plans & see if it has what you need.

Or possibly someone on here has a set of their Bedford plans & can tell you.

Yeah I have the TOW plans/kit currently. Not sure if I can post what you need here though. Any copyright infringement if I do?
