Pecatonica Tennesse Classic; Pics and 1st Shot

[PathfinderNC]

I have completed the Pecatonica Tennessee Classic Flintlock LR. It sports some pretty Curly Maple, an A weight swamped .50 Colerain barrel and a Late Ketland lock. It balances and comes up to sight extremely well, and wow it is fast! I put about 60 hours work into this, and think it was time well spent. It will be going up to Pennsylvania in a few days.

I wish I had the talent you do Pathfinder. I would love to be able to be able to create something that nice. Outstanding looking rifle.

Oh my Goodness!! What a stunning rifle. This is a good example of less is more. Great job and you seem to have a gift for beautiful finishing and color selection. This is my new favorite rifle! ................Labrat

That is a really nice piece of wood, and the color makes it pop. If that is a Jim Chambers late Ketland you have, they are fast...

I guess it’s about as fast as can be! I wish it was on one of my guns !!

The customer asked them for the best of Curly Maple and I think ergot it- yes the lock is a Chambers Late Ketland though it has a mid-aligned Main Spring that will be corrected. It’s fast as lightning even so.

I agree with the less is more statement. I really like plain rifles. That one is beautiful. Thanks for sharing with us!

Wow, very nice gun, you've got a talent for this. Your .36 looks great also!
I just now saw your video, boy is that a fast lock time!
