Re: My new Matchlock
That is pretty cool. Tell us about the build process. Did you make everything yourself or buy parts?

Re: My new Matchlock
I had a 20 gauge barrel from another project, but everything else was made from scraps in my shop.

Re: My new Matchlock
Very nice work!
Do you belong to a ECW group or just wanted to build a very early firearm?

Re: My new Matchlock
That is very cool. I bet that'll be fun to shoot.
Since I don't have facebook, can you tell about the barrel? Manufacturer, length, diameter, etc..

Re: My new Matchlock
The barrel is a Sharron barrel. I've had it laying around for years. Its .62 caliber 32 inches long. I flared the muzzle for looks.
