Unboxing Track of the Wolf's Bucks County flintlock rifle kit

I am starting a project to build a Bucks County style flintlock long rifle using a kit from Track of the Wolf. This project will take me quite a while, and I'll give you periodic video updates as the work progresses. In this video I'll show you exactly what come in the Track of the Wolf kit.

Excellent! I've been right on the edge of ordering a Track of the Wolf kit, but was intimidated by some of the work necessary to get it together right and pretty. Tracking this video will give me a chance to see what's necessary and so to judge whether I'm capable enough or whether such a project is over my head. Thanks, duelist!

This should be fun to watch unfold. I've been considering doing a TOW kit for some time now, will be watching with keen interest!

Great watch. I will be very interested in seeing this progress.

You have a challenging and interesting project on your hands.
A good book, like "Recreating the American Longrifle" by Buchle and Shumway is, IMHO, a must tool to go along with the building project.

I'm using Peter Alexander's book, "The Gunsmith of Grenville County"
