    Very nice to see fine examples of "old school" European gunmaking.

    If you are located in the US, are you "in the trade" or are you a highly skilled hobbyist?

    Thanks for sharing. You can be rightfully proud.

    I am a semi retired toolmaker that has been in the gunsmithing trade through out my life. I am more than happy to assist those in need of quality work. Thanks for looking...

    Good stuff!
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    Count me as impressed too! As a semi-retired cabinet maker/machinist I too dabble in projects like that and certainly appreciate the efforts of a like minded individual. I also did a set of rings to fit an existing claw mount, mostly with files, and swore I would never do another one!

    Thanks for your complements , I'm appreciate them. If any members have gunsmith machining or related tool projects , please feel free to contact me. I also do a bit of "black gun" work under direction of a fellow gunsmith that actually focuses on Class III stuff and all things bullet hose... I guess its like the odd couple...
