Those old Sharon barrels are really nice!

Lucky finds old stock never mounted or cut into.

Quite a nice find! I think they quit making them around 1980 or 81.

Spent yesterday at the range, which included some black powder revolver time. Really love this Uberti 1873 revolver.

A cartridge revolver with a conversion percussion cylinder, that’s different.

Took my Crockett Squirrel Rifle out again for a morning squirrel hunt. Only got one this time, but it was still nice to get out and walk the mountains.

Probably was the last one left in the neighborhood

That is a great bit of work right there.

Ordered some stuff from Track. Rod tips, nipples, ball pullers.

Working on some patch knives. Russell blades and leftover bits of wood.

Punched out a bunch of caps.
I really like the homemade ones now that the kinks seem worked out.
Now I need to find a capper that will feed them I have hopes for the printed elastic plastic polish cappers.

The Jim Kibler Woodsrunner I ordered at the end of March arrived today.
So far, I have gotten it out of the box, put all the parts in the same bag, put the barrel in the stock, put the gun in a corner of my reloading area and sealed up the box again to put in the garage so the wife has no idea I have a new gun.

The Doc is out now.

The story I remember is that after England banned cartridge handguns the Italian makers made these guns to reuse the existing holsters and designed the guns so you couldn't just swap out a cartridge cylinder. I don't know if this is true just what I heard.

Lee’s electric pots work great and on sale can be very reasonable priced.
