For those of you in the area of Marietta, Ohio. On Feb 12th, 2011, the Campus Martius Museum will be hosting a gunmaker's exhibit. I can't say what all they will have, but I recall going to the museum in grade school (40 yrs ago) and seeing a rifling machine that must've been made in the early 1800's and lots of flintlock rifles and muskets. Campus Martius was the first fort in the NW Territory. For information contact: breynolds@campusmartiusmuseum.org. No photos of the old rifle cutting machine online though.
