    Trigger position help

    I finished a build early last fall and the trigger wasn't positioned correctly. (Davis double set) I have to set the trigger before pulling back the cock or it won't catch at half or full cock. I think I've figured out the problem but before I go chiseling away I figured I'd ask. I believe...

    Hit a snag

    I've run into a snag in building my Pecatonica river A. Verner rifle. Apparently didn't cut the trigger plate short enough so now it interferes with the location of the tab for the trigger guard. I figure I've got 2 options... 1. Cut trigger plate and plug existing inlet then inlet the tab...

    Entry pipe inletting ???

    I'm building a P.R. "Verner" rifle. I've run into a snag with the ramrod entry pipe and I'm not sure how to proceed. The pre-drilled rr hole is exactly big enough for the rr to slide into without issue. Of course that means the outside diameter of the pipe is larger than the hole in the...

    Opinions please

    Thanks everyone. I appreciate the feedback. I'm going to stop until I figure out how to sharpen my chisels. I've watched several videos and have a guide but I guess I need to watch some more.

    Opinions please

    I'm building my first kit and I'd like some opinions on how to fix an issue. I've split a chunk of the stock that backs up the breech of the barrel. The piece is still attached. Should I get some glue in as is and clamp with tape or cut out a plug bigger than the issue and glue in a new piece?

    First horn attempt

    Thanks everyone for the compliments. It helps when you've got a lathe and a nice chunk of cherry sitting around.

    Stock finish question

    Has anyone ever used aqua fortis over a mineral stain like pictured? How did it turn out? Pictures? I'm hesitant to purchase this stock because of it but it's available NOW as opposed to waiting 8 weeks.

    First horn attempt

    Yep, it should do. It holds nearly 2000 grains of 3f.

    First horn attempt

    This is my first attempt at a powder horn. I purchased the base horn mostly cleaned up and polished but there were lots of rough spots and ridges. I did file flats on the lower part but they're hard to see. I might end up staining at least the lower part but we'll see. Then a strap and cord...
