Parts gun finished!
« on: November 27, 2009, 11:16:14 AM »
Having gotten back into muzzle loading after 10 years I bought a NIB sidekick that is a sweetheart but being a true blue Handiholic
couldn't leave well enough alone. This started out as a project for fun, bought bbl & forend, then bought receiver & stock, had mount
& rings and 4x ler scope from sold shotgun. Added breech plug modification. hope it shoots as well as Sk, going to use same load 90gr BH and Hornady
saboted 240gr bullet. Anyhow this is how she turned out, what do you think?

You just "couldn't leave well enough alone" is right. Now look what you did! ;D

Great job Fred. It looks like a keeper. Nice, well organized, little shop you have there too.
