Thread: American long rifle build

Just re shaped the island around the lock and made a template of it with the lock screw locations as a reference



Transferred it to the other side



And shaped it to the lines
Now both the sides are practically identical



So now I have stripped some of the brass parts and started working off the tool marks
A couple more little jobs to do and then it's on to finishing the stock and Browning the barrel, lock and trigger plate
