    Is this repairable or restock.

    My shop is in the cellar and had to rebuild a block wall so everything is boxed and stored until finished.

    Got it up on the wall with my N.Lewis target gun and a couple of the guitars I built. Looks pretty good up there. I am grateful of the support from the guys in this forum. I was not sure how it would turn out but glad I did it.

    It’s not perfect but back in one piece and not sitting in a dusty closet for another 50 years. I know my father would have loved seeing it back together. I will post final pics when I get the staining done. Thanks for the encouragement and compliments. Now I want to build one to shoot.

    Thank You For everyone's advice. I can't bring myself to restock it. It needs to have as much of the old stock as possible to keep its character. Any recommendations if I do decide to send it out for professional repair?

    It is not a full size rifle either. My father always said it was a boy’s rifle. It is definitely for a small frame person.

    I have a curly maple stock blank purchased by my father to replace the stock. He purchased it in 1965. I have made modern gun stocks and also build guitars. But never tried a flintlock stock. I don’t want to mess up that old maple blank.
