My Ohio Rifle!

Sweet.

I see now, using my my phone it's too small to realize that the little arrow that is used to go from one picture to the next is superimposed on top of the heel of the BP. It looked like a brass knob on the heel.

Kinda what I thought , had me throwed for a second till I realized it was an arrow .

Friends, the rifle arrived and it is EXCELLENT.

Lighting in my house at night is so bad, going to take a photo during daylight to show you guys. Can’t wait to shoot it!!

Now you can start saving for your next rifle.

That is, indeed, a very beautiful rifle that has some real age in it, notwithstanding that it is a modern build of the very best of American gunmaking. I envy you greatly, and wish you well with the shooting of it. I'd like to think that you might make a short Youtube movie for us to see and further admirify it.

I did the same thing.

Saw mention here today about Fremont muskets, cut-down M1842 perc. guns. There must be one on line for sale at some point. I was interested to learn they cut down some for the Fremont exploration, am looking for book on same at my library, the expedition that is. I have a 3-band rifled M42, but would love to handle the 2-bander! Thanks. They are just plain handsome, as muskets go.

Guys, here are some photos of the rifle:

The builder was Mike Compton who occasionally builds and sells rifles with Track of the Wolf. It is just gorgeous!! Extremely well put together Ohio-style halfstock!! Balance and handling are excellent, weighs less than 6 1/2 lbs with just enough hang that it should be great for offhand yet not so heavy as to become a chore. I am super excited to shoot it on Sunday once my supplies come in.

Stay tuned for a range report!
