I know it's been a while since I posted a new project, that's because I've mostly been building things that are similar to projects I've already posted so there was no sense in reposting the same stuff. Finally though I have a new project to post. I could have posted this in any number of categories like muzzleloading or handguns or black powder but I think that Howdah Pistols really belong as companion pieces to double Rifles so I'm posting it in the Double Rifle forum. This is a semi-close reproduction of a 16 Bore Over/Under D. Egg Howdah Pistol.           If you'd like to see how it's put together please watch the video below. https://youtu.be/R246x-qykAM Thanks for looking. Colin | ||
