Dang, that looks great! Keep up the great work.
Yes a beautiful gun in the making , makes me want to try harder at my work.It's turning out real nice indeed.. Seriously...! If I had one an I suck at engraving. That would be the only thing I'd do to it... Weldone
Looking really goodi decided to oxidize the metal to look like it was left in the white
I see it’s now costing nearly $1500 for a shipped Kibler kit including the lock... their prices keep climbing. Hoping they don’t price themselves out of the unique niche they’ve made in the market.
I’m also noticing the “encouraged” walnut option is $160 more expensive than either standard maple or cherry... what’s up with that?
That sure is pretty. Do you mind sharing what you did to get that color? I have one coming (ordered May 17th, hopefully it'll ship soon) and am planning to go for a similar looki have the stock in basic color now.View attachment 334594View attachment 334595View attachment 334596

I have been building black powder rifles , pistols and shotguns for over 40 years. I did not start building from scratch. If Mr. Kibler sparks an interest in someone that can lead to a lifetime of enjoyment, all the power to himi will be building this gun to sell, put your order in early! LOL,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

lets see some of your work then to see how skilled you are...Don't you mean you'll be assembling this gun? Looks to me like it's already built.
That's why I will never buy one of these. As nice as they are, there's simply no challenge involved.
Is the Patina'd look just black paint?like i said i will sell this gun. i will order another ramrod Monday. but i won't list it till that is done. if anyone is interested PM me,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
