Been thinking about a flint, halfstock fowler for a couple years now. One that would resemble a NW Trade Gun that's been repaired.
Here's what I've come up with so far. :grin:
Walnut stock, 36" octagon to round barrel, 20 Ga
At this point, it's 6 1/2 pounds with the lock.
Going with one ramrod pipe, soldered directly to the barrel and no underlug.
So far, it has a better feel than what I was expecting.
Balances and shoulders sweet.
