I'm surprised I haven't responded to this thread. My fusil de chasse built from TOW parts.

Im calling dibs on the one second from the bottom... 😁
you will have to fight my wife for that one. it's cherry and i built it to sell. finished it and showed it to her. she took it and walked away while asking what other i was going to sell. it lives in a hard case under her side of the bed.
 
A pair of Hatfield's that I acquired a 45 cal flintlock and a 54 cal percussion. Both needed some work and they shot very well. They both cleaned up to look like new. The 54 cap lock was a cheek slapper for me, so I gifted it to the officer that was promoted to my Lt. position when I retired. Still have the 45 flintlock.

very nice BP, I am jealous. I have more than I can shoot. I keep finding more that I like. Those 2 are beauties.
 
I have nothing as fine or unique as many of the beauties that I’ve seen in this thread. I mostly collect and shoot ACW era military arms, but I am fond of this Mowrey Allen & Thurber that I acquired from another forum member a couple of years ago. It’s purdy and accurate.

Really like the looks of that rifle.
 
Guess it's my latest pride & joy to shoot. An original German Jaeger that I restored and had to make some of the parts. The biggest challenge was making the forearm wood from an old piece off a cutoff forearm and matching the color.

Made the stalking safety and the patch box cover.
