Here is an example of one of my first underhammer builds (third, actually). That target is my first shot. This one has a .50 cal steel Green Mountain rifled barrel of 1:28 twist. The stand came later when I realized that loading this pistol on the bench would not be easy.
The lock is crude but it works. The trigger has a "hat" that is supposed to rub on the hammer spring. This rubbing forces the trigger forward and into a locking position.
The action gets mounted to the barrel block. Action is housed in a piece of 3/8 inch key stock. A top strap was inlet to the barrel block and then all parts get mounted.
Picture shows all parts together but has no finish on the Walnut.
A clip of how it works.
