12ga Upgraded

This one is a 12ga black powder muzzle loading slug shooter.  Barrel is a 12ga unchambered barrel.  A M20x2.5 plug was installed.  Then was shot several times that way only to break the grip at the top.  This one seems to be everyone's dream, a lot of folks who first saw it just wanted to hold it and point it.  Kinda like shooting the villains on TV.

Yes, it's big.









Lock innards.  Since this picture was taken, the trigger was reshaped (bent), rearward.  Safety pin shaped trigger+sear spring holds both together and forces the sear into the hammer notches.








How the barrel mounts. There are two 10-32 bolts through each plate and through the barrel plug.  So other barrels could be installed if desired.

















Barrel mounted. Serial # is P plus the date (MO/DA/YR). P09032011.

Got bored and changed the stock to a Cherry stock.  It's not finished but this is the general shape.  Trigger reshaped, flash cup added to hammer.








Nipple is replaced.  Cheek piece outlined roughly.  Mounting hardware countersunk onto the wood.

Got to shoot loads of old BB's.
Used 50gr of 777 FFg, plastic wad, over-wad card to hold BB's in.
I have no idea where they went, out there somewhere.

Began to shrink the wrist area.

Things to do:  Reshape the stock even more.
