I've had the parts for this one laying around for about a year. Decided Sept. 25th to start working on it. Wanted to get it done so I could use it during Ky's early muzzleloader deer season Oct. 15th. Working nights and weekends on it, had it ready to shoot Oct. 10th. Nothing fancy, all iron/steel furniture; 45cal 36" 13/16 GM barrel. Points and shoulders very well; shoots well too. With my old bifocal eyes seeing the sights is a problem, so I put a Marbles fiber optic sight on the front ::. Looks like a little orange ball of fire.
