Except for about 12 various size machine screw/ setscrew/ wood screws and 1 roll pin for the hammer to pivot on and the scope , everything else is shop made. The action is a Hilliard action copied out of Logan's book, the frame is machined from 1 1/4 brass bar stock, the barrel is a scrap piece of 4140 barstock bored .4375 and then rifled in our General motors rack and pinon steering gear sine bar rifling machine. The stock wood is from a pecan tree that blew down in a wind storm a couple of years ago and we had a sawmill slab it out for us , it is stained with aqua fortis. All of the pins and such are welding rod stubs or small scrap pieces of steel or brass laying around the shop. Oh the saw handle pattern is from Logans book as well I sort of call this my Billinhurst/Hilliard gun because I used a comination of the two styles either in the action or frame. The barrel is also easily removed by loosing three set screws, when I get time I may fit an extra 15ga shotgun barrel to it. There were two of us working on several aspects of this gun so I can't take all of the credit. total cost of gun including scope was under $50.00 for materials since most of it is scrap , giveaway, or surplus material.
