You really paid with blood for this rifle. I don't envy you!

Your carving is exceptionally well done! :master: As for your "trouble maker," (She's a cutie! She gets that from Mom, right?) wait until she starts DATING BOYS!!! You'll be able to look back at this rifle and laugh!!! :crackup:
It's come a long way from starting out like this.... I'm really getting tired of working on this rifle. I'm waiting on a new barrel from Rice, the original was bent. And once it get here, I'm going to spend a Saturday finishing it. It's going to be a really interesting rifle. It has worm stains all over it and should make it unusual. The curl in the wood is fantastic.
I hate kits !!! If you think a Chambers kit just snaps together, think again. You have to do a lot of work to make it look right. I had to re-do the cheek piece, lock mortice, etc, etc, and etc.... grrr
