I've got some pics (not too good, though) of my new .62 fowler. Soon as my wife puts them on my computer I'll post them.
 
Here is mine. I finished it about mid March. I got it finally to the range last week. It is "turkey" ready. It is a 20ga. with 44" oct. to rd. Colerain barrel, Chambers English Fowler lock, Davis triggers and American black walnut.

You should also check the archives in the pictures forum. Many fowling guns have been posted in the smoothbore and building forums over the years but got moved to the picture forum.

Here's a New England fowler that's a bit different. Getz 46" 20 bore, Davis English trade lock, home made buttplate, side plate and pipes. Cherry stock with silver and brass wire that has been relief carved on one side. Built with the idea off parts left over from several busted up guns, both french and english.
