    My percussion pistol in the pic is 65Cal I think. I been shooting 60 cal balls from it. There is a fair bit of windage but it is a smooth bore so it doesn't matter. Its accurate enough for the messing around I do with it. The flintlock is 62 Cal I believe.

    Is your Tower pistol a kit or a replica from one of the BP custom companies? I'd love a firing Tower pistol. I didn't mention original , because I've never seen a Tower pistol in private hands that was original that looked that good.

    It is from a custom company. Smooth Bore etc. As close to original as possible. Local product made from outsourced parts from India then finished in his shop. I am amazed at everything that comes out of this guys shop. place called loyalist arms.

    Haven't posted anything in a while ...

    This is the Spikes "Jack" I put together with a 16" hex fluted stainless barrel (one of the barrels I'm thinking about sending to 300Below) & key-mod hand guard with a rail adapter and a Harris bipod adapter on that so I could mount the bipod ... and I finally found a use for the Osprey Defense piston system that I'd gotten for my last SBR, but it wouldn't fit under the Sampson EVO tube ... used a 4.5 RRA 2-stage trigger I grabbed for $65 when they were having a sale ... It's wearing a Bushnell 1-4x24 I borrowed off my AUG but will be replacing it with a Bushnell AR223 4.5-18x40 because I just need more magnification

    I love that receiver, but not for the price. What brand is the handguard that the Osprey fits under?

    I didn't think to ask what brand it is and hadn't given it a second thought until now. The seller had several tubes laid out on the table and they weren't in a packages ... This one he said it was the last one of these he had and made me a "deal" on it, he also had the end cap which was in a Midwest Industries package, so I'm guessing that's what it is ... but I've looked it over and I don't see any identifying marks on it which seems kind of strange as the ones on GunBroker are marked.



    As to Jack, I've been looking at that receiver for a while and it seems all the billet receivers are in the $200-$300 range ... we have a local pawn shop that has dedicated a section of the shop to reloading supplies and AR parts ... They got some in and priced them at $299 which is the cheapest I've seen them, so no shipping or transfer fee ... again, I got weak ... At least it's not blue

    Oddly enough I don't find the "Jack" receiver on Spike's web site at the moment.

    Wait, I went back and searched by the term "Jack" and found not only that one but this one. http://www.spikestactical.com/jack10...et-p-1349.html A .308 Jack skull receiver set of upper and lower. OMG ... I'm losing my mind I want it soooooooooo bad!!!!!

    Here's the one I've dealt with in the past. They have some really interesting, period firearms. I bought their double-barrel percussion pistol (howdah pistol in .62 caliber) and I really want their double barrel flintlock shotgun. Their prices are very reasonable, not to mention, they sell guns you can't find anywhere else...

    Got a modern Tec-9:

    The long-term goal for this gun is SBR and suppressed. Not sure if I'll be able to do it before the new trust rules set in or not. I did find an experienced lawyer to create a NFA trust for $175.

    The only issue I see is that instead of using cord to attach the stock to the receiver they should have used duct tape. Duct tape can fix anything!

    That Jennings is very bright! Don't need to shoot it, just flash the attacker with it in the eyes and you will be good to go!

    The stock is attached with a bolt the same way the original one was, I just had to tap the hole to a different thread pitch. The rope is there for a comfortable grip because the stock doesn't go any further on the receiver.

    Some 70's gear I decided to take out and photo. Nothing you haven't seen before.
