More on "Just Another"

Today, this much was accomplished.
Barrel is now tanged, screwed in and pinned.
Grip shaping starting to appear.
Action mounted.
The front sight is on backwards, you say? Easily fixed, turn it around or just make another.












Action has had some work done, lowering the half-cock position (shown).
Stock shape is still not finalized. It may just get tapered back to front with enough left for a ramrod.
Not sure what to do with that slight hump at the rear.

Here is a fuzzy picture of the tang. Two 8-32 screws hold the tang to the plug while the brass screw holds the tang to the stock. Front edges of the tang have been shaped to match the barrel contour.

Looking for adjustable rear sight ideas.

I just hope that all of this work pays off with a shoot-able pistol.

The hammer spring has been tapered (width) being narrower at front and wider at the trigger. This keeps the hammer spring from intruding into the knuckle or grip area.
