Hi, I wish I could take some of the credit for these guns, he made them without any help from me , me I just tinker about with a few minor repairs, not on the same planet as him with skill or knowledge on English long guns, also the "old git" can still out shoot me.
His other guns he made include a 20 bore side by side flintlock, 12 bore single barrel flintlock, 12 bore match lock and a huge 4 bore flintlock fowling gun.
I have acquired from him the 20 bore double and the 4 bore flintlocks and consider myself very lucky to have done so, I shoot the 20 bore most weeks but the 4 bore needs a younger man than me to handle it more the a couple of time a year, it takes 10 drams of powder with 2 oz of lead and weighs a ton.
