    WTB-Single shot winter project

    I'm posting this here mainly to avoid having to do repeated bumps in swapping and selling so I hope this is ok .

    So winter is upon us and I lack a winter project , the last few years I was more into building from scratch , I did two of the dehaas actions and enjoyed building them , I also went threw the building semi auto sub guns from torch cut kit phase .

    This year I am not feeling quite so ambitious , but I still want a project to work on .

    I've decided I'd like to do a single shot black powder cartridge rifle .
    Now usually people think large frames for the 45-70 and similar .
    Me , Im thinking more along the lines of small cartridges like .32 s-w and similar up to maybe a 44-40

    So if you happen to have a single shot receiver that would era correct
    , mostly complete and is buildable. Hit me up .

    I for sure am looking in the budget minded category , i expect to do some repairs and make a few parts . in other words a challenge is prefered over a cream puff
    My only requirement is that you understand that to fund the project I'll need to sell some stuff I don't particularly need so a deal won't happen instantly .

    Simpson Ltd, has some great smokeless action with poor barrels, 8x58 that would fit your needs. They also have some of the 12.7x44 in the same condition.They can be shipped straight to your door.
