SOLD Green Mountain .45 cal unfinished kit

[BlackPowderKeg]

This use to belong to my fathers friend who was a rifle builder. After his passed away we inherited lots of unfinished stuff, this one was sitting in my closet for many years. He went as far with this kit as glass bedding otherwise please check many pictures.

I see this barrels go for crazy $$ on evel bay so I figured out this whole thing with stock/lock and barrel for $495 shipped would be good deal for somebody

Just a few comments on the unfinished rifle. The lock and trigger guard are Thompson Center. The stock is a full length aftermarket stock for the T\C. The barrel is Green MT (I own 3 GM's and they are all excellent shooters. Much better than a T\C IMHO)

Look's like most of the work has been done. With a careful finish it would make a fine looking rifle. The price seems very fair. (And I'm not getting a paid endorsement for this!!)

Is the LOP really only 12 inches? Why so short?

Hard to tell from the angle of the pic. I'm guessing it's 13" from the front trigger to the middle of the buttplate.

What twist is the barrel?

not sure

 

[exarcher]

is it a "slow twist" for patched ball? i have a fast twist on 50cal flintlock that is purely awesome shooter,, GM barrels are excellent.

 

[BlackPowderKeg]

confirmed its 1 turn in 70 inches
