Sir;Well, it's been a little but of time since I got to work on the pistol, between shoots, work, and other projects.
Witha lot of patience, I finally gor the barrel and tang dropped into place. Since I am new to this, I'm sure I didn't do the best job, but I think it's manageable. I'm going to research glass bedding, just to make sure everything is solid. I know I got a little wide on the sides of the tang.
After all of that, I felt that the pan was sitting just a hair too far away, and did some more work to fitting the lock. The picture really doesn't show it in the best light, but I think it's at least safe. But, I still might shave a hair off, so to speak.
Started working on the trigger now. We'll see what kind of time I have, but I'm hoping I can have the trigger inletted, and the barrel screw drilled. Maybe even the side plate.
Pictures are not the best, but progress has been made. I think it makes the gap on the left side look worse than it is.
How is your French Dragoon coming along?
