Ellis,
I agree with you completely on the "Gun Craft " book. He explains in chapter two on "Jointing & The Circle" how the English gunmakers manage to get their guns so closely fitted, and how jointing on the circle manages to take much of the strain off the hingepin. That is knowledge that you just won't find anywhere else. I am glad to see that you have decided to take part in our discussions on building double rifles.

I want you to know that there are lots of people out here, like myself for instance, who would never have started a double conversion without your book to lead us onward and show us the way to get started. Thanks to you, people can now have access to double rifles that they never could have afforded to own any other way. Some may grouch about building cheap doubles that will blow up and hurt someone, but that's all hogwash. If they follow your methods of proofing before shooting it from the shoulder, there is not much chance of that happening. Thanks for sharing your ideas and expertice with us and welcome to Nitro Express forums. Bob
