Wahoo!! My old website is back up. www.bradshawcutlery.citymax.com . I have a temporary page for the rifles with pricing and options.

As for progress....Well, I will be shooting next week. All that is needed for the first shots are firing pins, chambering and final fit on the ejectors.

The rifle weighs in at 5.7 lbs, and balances 1.5" in front ( muzzel end) of the hinge pin. It points great and weighs enough to have substance. The weight of the barrels are almost enough to cock the locks, but they will certainly be enough once everything is heat treated and polished.

The front sight base has a regulating screw for spread.

I am very pleased with the rifles feel and overall look. It's nice and slim, but doesn't have a "toy" feel. It shoulders and points great. Should be hell on jack rabbits. :-)

Bramble,

I am looking into the shoe lump suggestion. Looks like it may streamline the process a little. Good stuff!!
