So Happy

[Roy]

Mind if I send you a couple dozen TRS lock kits? :wink:

:shocked2: :surrender:

Actually I am starting working on another one. Looks to be another really clean casting. Some of them as you know aren't very nice.

 

[bucktales]

That's a fine looking lock! :bow:

I think that's gonna be a special gun when he's done and should be a dandy hunting gun! Said he was gonna spend extra time on it. :thumbsup:

 

[GreyWhiskers]

Beautiful, Roy. I agree with Fred about the finish. :thumbsup:

Gotta show my ignorance though. I didn't know that the springs could be cast.

[Roy]

Most of them are today..

 

[longshot47]

PRIMO! :thumbsup:

 

[Stophel]

Cool! I hate tapping blind holes too. But they look neat that way!

 

[Roy]

My tap is a bit shorter now :haha:

Thanks :thumbsup:

 

[Rolfkt]

Beautiful work!!! What did you use to freshen up the cast engraving?

Best regards

Rolfkt

 

[Roy]

Mostly file work, and a bit of wet dry sandpaper here and there to even things out a bit. I didn't do anything to the engraving. Some of the lines are barely there..

 

[Mulebrain]

Superb Work!

Looks killer! :thumbsup:

 

[Roy]

updates on the gun...

 

[rabjr]

Thats to fancy for you Roy. :haha: :thumbsup:

 

[Mike Brooks]

You're a brave man Roy. :bow:

[Stophel]

Looks nice! Not too much drop! It's got Cast off! Nice shaping. :wink:

Hey, are you going to use the set triggers that come with this set? I have the lock and the triggers, neither of which I have gotten around to using.

 

[Roy]

You're a brave man Roy. :bow:

Input! I need input :rotf: :v

 

[Stophel]

Now comes all the fine, late baroque carving! :wink:

 

[rabjr]

Ohhh wire and Ivory inlays.... :grin: :thumbsup:

 

[Roy]

I was just trying to get the shape right :haha: I have another Jaeger build on the books and wanted t make sure that I had enough cast to deal with the lack of drop. With out a pattern I decided best to use my stock :haha:

It will roughly have a 13 1/4" LOP I think I could have gotten away with a 13" fine and it would have still fit me. It will weigh right at 7 lbs when finished and the balance is right in front of the lock.... :thumbsup:
