    SOLD Billinghurst switch barrel Underhammer .458/.45RB

    It's a fun gun for sure. Deer don't like it much.

    SOLD Billinghurst switch barrel Underhammer .458/.45RB

    I love this gun, but life priorities are changing and I'm not likely to find time to enjoy it as much as I used to. It was made by John Braxton of the Snow Camp area of NC. He also made the replica cannons at Fort Fisher I am told if the name sounds familiar. Anyway, I talked with John when I...

    Short Lefty

    Hope I didn't put it in the wrong place. I built it. Old LH Dixie Gun works small action. 21" long 54 caliber Colerain, 15/16 Octagonal, round rifled, 56 twist. Davis double set trigger. The trigger guard was custom made by me, so I could keep my gloves on. Black walnut stock from an old...

    New Squirreler

    At 8-1/2 it isn't too bad. Compared to the 45 bullet gun, its svelt. Woe is the day that I discovered them. I even built one on the down low, during lunch breaks at work, using an 8mm rolling block barrel. Here's a link to a slow mo test video of that one: (turn on the sound)...

    New Squirreler

    The squirrel rifle action is a commercial action from the Muzzleloading Emporium. They call it a "Universal" and its made by Allen Foundary. The gun with the deer in it is a typical Billinghurst design.

    New Squirreler

    If you guys get some free time, search "Underhammer" Here's another one I have, with the gratuitous kill shot. It's actually a switch barrel gun, with the fast twist scoped 45, a 45 round ball, and a 54 roundball barrel. Will be getting a 54 fast twist to handle maxi's, and I may get another...

    New Squirreler

    8lb 5 ounces. I've got it sighted in at 33 yard using 22 gr FFFg PRB (its a 32 cal) So far, so good.

    Pay no attention to the ramrod, still working on a field rod.

    tang/peep sight photo request

    There is no rear sight. Scratch made build. Barrel is as virgin and pure as a northwoods snow fall.

    tang/peep sight photo request

    Thanks,Sir. Took the time this weekend to go from 14 to 12-1/4" World of difference. Given the carbine length 34" barrel, handles like a dream and I should be able to mount the peep right at the breech of the tang.

    tang/peep sight photo request

    You tagged my post at the campfire, and believe me, that is the basis from where everything else starts. Fine job. And uber in simplicity. My quest now is to see if I can bring it back towards the old eyeball any without a lot of hastle.

    tang/peep sight photo request

    I'm looking for photos of rear tang/peep sights people have built for their guns. I'm trying to come up with a peep for my squirrel rifle and was thinking a lollipop would work best for shooting, but the thought of a long post on the tang that could get bumped has got me concerned. So any long...

    Fit in a barrel channel

    This one is an underhammer using the Allen Foundary Universal action. here's a pic of the previous layout as a 54 cal here's the action from underneath: If I bottom out the barrel to where the old one was, then all I need due aside from filling the channel gap is take down the tang...

    Fit in a barrel channel

    I've done a few centerfire rifles in my day, so I hope I'm past the nervous phase. Appreciate the insight, gentlemen. Looks like Saturday's docket is filled now.

    Fit in a barrel channel

    So unlike the concern some have with centerfire rifles as long as its able to go in and out easy, it doesn't matter if you have a "touch" here and there? I had a mylar thin gap when it was set up for the larger barrel, I just realize retrofitting to smaller barrel may not give me the uniform...
