Jeff will do plug and firing pin work but that's it. I couldn't find anyone who would put a brux or any other smls barrel on mine.Its still in the box.
sounds sweet, be sure to post new baby pics when its all doneI am just finishing up a build I started back in May. Mark made me a .45 barrel for an Encore. I sent the frame to him to be nitrided so it all matched and had the stock hydrodipped. I received the barrel and am just waiting for the breech plug and it will be ready to go. Should come in right about 8 lbs. Super excited for it.
Sure will. Supposed to climb out of the sub-arctic temps this next week and I'm really really hoping I have parts in so I can try shooting it.sounds sweet, be sure to post new baby pics when its all done
Hasn't this last week been a treat? I have 8 degrees right now but a SE wind is blowing hard enough that sparrows stay in place in the air with their wings out. I have no idea what the wind chill index is but then I have zero plans to venture out to find out.Sure will.

That's one word for it. I got kinda spoiled with not having to cut so much firewood so far this winter but boy we sure made up for it the last 10 days or so. With this wind that seems like it hasn't stopped the house feels cold all the time. Finally hopefully going to get new windows and siding from that hail storm a year and a half ago. Hopefully that will help slow the drafts down in our old house.Hasn't this last week been a treat?

I shot my new to me smokeless twice this afternoon ,100 yds and 3 inch off the bull .1st shot was 9:00 @100 yds 2nd was 1:00 2 inch off . The 2nd shot was with my middle finger as my trigger finger couldn't feel the trigger but 11 degrees made for interesting challenges .Tomorrow will give it another try ,this time with a buddy heater /electric socks and hand warmers !!/Ed (Duplex with 2400 powder worked well)Sure been cold here in Arkansas I dropped to Sabot on my concrete floor yesterday and it shattered.
Yes goes in that stock like it belongs there , no choice I started out ice fishing (running low on perch/crappy) so 1st hole 3-4 inch 30 ft and my spud punched thru with 1 1/2- 2 inch and decided to try shooting instead ! The wind was awesome so back at the bench wasn't bad but left chrono home so with 2 shots I was done shooting too . Another 1st was I got the first shot off ( left the rear bag home so used a towel) and that one went 9:00 but the 2nd one shot high (like your target ) but to do that I used my middle finger cause my trigger finger wasDid you slip it into that other stock
