Latest Flintlock Finished

[Cadien]

Thought I would post a couple of pics of some of the latest rifles to leave the shop. Hope y'all like the work. We are building these one at a time, by hand using centuries old techniques.

That looks beautiful. Love the way the finish turned out and your engraving is really top notch pro looking!

Here is a pic of the lock from the gun I'm holding. Sorry for the sideways photo above. Just came out that way.

Beautiful work! I just received my copy of Peter Alexander's book The Gunsmith of Grenville County and hope to start building soon. Tell us about yourself. How long have you been building? How did you learn? Self taught? Mentored? Do you build commercially? Do you treach?

At the moment I focus mainly on hand engraving. I'm apprenticed under Shawn Webster building muzzleloaders. Shawn and are the only 2 employees of Red Jacket Muzzleloading.
