…obviously not from the flatwoods of North Florida.
I speak fluent “Cracker”, and can order another beer in Italian, thanks to a few years in the service. I’m trying to learn Spanish, but it’s like they’re speaking a whole ‘nother language or something.
-Red, Cracker born and bred…
I can read a train schedule, a menu, order a beer and get my face slapped in 5 different languages.
 
Jim now offers some very nice CNC carving for the wood runner. I wonder (hope) if this will be an option on the smoothbore. I know it isn't supposed to be representative of a really fancy "rich man's" fowler but he also mentioned that it certainly isn't a "low end" trade gun. I think some tasteful carving as an option would be awesome.

I read somewhere on the Kibler's site that one of the guns they are considering to make in the future is a NW Trade gun. Does anyone close to the source know anything about this?
In his blog, Jim wrote:
"The Next Kit
The next kit, while not officially in the works yet, should be started in the next year. It will be an earlier, bigger gun that can be carved and can be finished as a Pennsylvania or Virginia rifle. I have started keeping a list of folks who want to be notified when it comes for sale so send me an email if you would like to be added."

If anyone has the inside scoop, please share.

Thanks


I’ve heard rumors of a Fowler which could be many types of guns.

Someone said recent a brown Bess but I don’t see it, too costly to mass produce.
 
Some time back JK responded to this line of query and had said it would be an English 'export' type fowler. For the colonies as I recall. He'd said it was in process at that time. I can't for the life of me find it again so (?) At any rate, I think it's a capitol idea and keep watching for it. 'No mention of it on his site yet, and I don't blame him for keeping his head down 'till it's ready.
 
Ooooh, a fowler would be so tempting, but on the other hand, fusil de chasse's keep calling to me. Decisions, decisions... 🤔
