    Hell, I don`t think I`m that good, but will be happy when I feel the recoil and see the smoke from the first shot at the range and as they say, "It`s not over till the fat lady sings", which means the gun is not finished yet. So still working on bits for the Sharps like the back sight, set up on the lathe to mill out the range slider on the pop up for long range shooting. Would also love a tang peep sight, so will look at that a bit later, quite a tricky bit to make, but as my grand son say`s, "grandad can fix anything, he even made a GUN!. Homebrew.357.
