Howdy from Michigan!!

Hello all, I've been shooting traditional black powder stuff for as long as I can remember, some of my earliest shooting memories are of a 45 caliber percussion that my Dad built from a kit. I'm sorta a backyard machinist, and I enjoy building alot of firearms related stuff, right now I'm in the middle of a couple front stuffer builds, one an underhammer 20 gauge pistol, and another sidelock that I'm using a 20mm anti aircraft barrel that I've turned and milled into a octagon to round, I'll cut my own mold to cast some pretty heavy bullets for it. I own some modern guns as well, but the older I get the more I enjoy the traditional stuff.

Welcome!
Definitely interested in seeing the finished 20mm gun. That'd make a nice barrel for a wall gun.
