Well, I have 6 or more other builds ahead of it (flintlock, 2 wheellocks and some matchlocks, all to be left-handed to boot!) ahead of it, so this will take some time to build, but here she is!
Ahhhhh, well at least what it will look like when built, as I just got a bunch of parts and a rough cut blank of wood. My plans are to do the build and take pictures all along the build process, but I won't be posting them here as I go, I'll wait until it's done or just about done. Then I will post a series for the:
Only 12- 13 pounds ... the smoothbore barrels are only 20" long, but with a service load of 40-grains per barrel or a 240-grn charge ... going off at once!

- Lock build
