Yes - quite a rifle! Looks to be about Cpt. Curl-size.

yes I watched Colin's video of proofing or test firing the barrels. I think he used something like 500gr. or 600gr. and a single ball, with the barrels held in a sling of 3/4" to 1" ropes. OMG - when that thing went off, I felt the concussion in my guts.

Sold at auction for under 10k last year. Not a reflection of the quality because Colin does amazing work. Just shows how niche the market is on this stuff.
On a side note - I can’t speak highly enough of Colin. Very patient and answers all my questions knowing full well I’m unlikely to ever be a customer. Great guy in all areas.
Edit to add: the above said about Colin I can say about pretty much all members I’ve had interactions with here also. You guys have been very helpful and entertaining over the years and I want you all to know I appreciate it. Maybe I should make that a new thread.

Ouch. I am left handed, recovering from a rotator cuff, and this just makes it hurt!!
