Can we talk breach loaders here?

[Commodore Swab]

My new project arrived and thought you might like to see.

I think I've seen something like that before but you'll have to refresh my memory. What is it??

A Ferguson..

 

[Phil Coffins]

Ferguson.

That's what I thought but I wasn't sure enough to venture a guess. It's fine with me if you keep us posted on your progress. I have a friend who has written some articles on them. They were interesting guns.

I sold the last one I built, got this to keep my inventory up.

Yes, @Commodore Swab, we can talk about your project.

 

[Flint62Smoothie]

Awesome! Look up Dave Person’s builds on the Ferguson if you haven’t already!

 

[leadhoarder]

You can still load it from the muzzle I guess so it is fair game IMO.

it sure didn't do Ferguson any good on our king's mountain here in SC, but a very cool gun nevertheless ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

 

[Grenadier1758]

Ferguson didn't have any of his rifles issued to the units on King's Mountain.

 

[olskool]

it really wouldn't have mattered if he did, he was doomed when he climbed that rock, and thumbed his nose at what he considered peasants,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
