.54 Colonial in Cherry off the bench

[PathfinderNC]

I finished this Kibler Colonial rifle today. It is .54 caliber with a rich Cherry stock. I inlet a tow plate, hunter's star and a brass patch box similar to several pre-Rev styles in Track of the Wolf. I aged the barrel and darkened parts of the stock to give it an aged look.
This gun balances so well and will be a fun one to shoot. I hope to sight this in soon and bring it on a hunt in October!

Man,you dont screw around. That looks really nice, especially like the carving, very tastefully done.

I think you're starting to get the hang of this


Another Beaut!

 

[Brokenbear]

Nice!

 

[nkbj]

Yes, very nicely done sir.

 

[D.Summers]

Say, didn't you just finish one not too long ago? Beautiful work!!

Pathfinder thats really nice as all of yours have been. But whatever you do dont put this one up for sale as there will be alot of pain, agony and you could possible kill a few buyers with this one.

 

[Brokennock]

Very nice.

Thank you. And yes I completed another .54 Colonial a few weeks ago. It’s now living in Virginia and probably having a great time!

Well that wouldn’t be very sporting! I was planning on using this rifle for a hunt I am going on. But I need to sell them to make more so who knows…

Very nice sir.

 

[Stykbow]

That’s a fine looking rifle.

Nicely done! I can't tell by the pictures but did you incorporate any of the techniques used by @dave_person in his colonial build? If so, which one(s)?

 

[PathfinderNC]

Very nice sir.

Thanks!
