I've been lurking here for a few months. Don't know why I haven't been posting here, so here goes.

I have been posting progress on building my little double rifles. This one is special since it has a damascus receiver. Hope you all enjoy it, and I will post updates here as well.Here is the link to the thread over on AR forums.

Thanks!!

Unbelievable!

"Outstanding" does not begin to cover what you have done. "The Old Ones", wherever they may be, must surely be pleased.

Wow

I haven't any words to describe my admiration for your skill and work. Thanks for posting this, unbelieveable.

Bailey, welcome , would you be the gemtleman who also makes some very special knives?

My friend Ron Vella pointed me to your web site so I have seen your work before and may I say there is some "SERIOUS TALENT" there,... simply Superb!
BTW...I'm quite fond of the wire EDM work myself, I find it especially handy to make obsolete replacement springs.

Great work!

Best

This just spectacular. I can't wait to see some pics of the finished product. Thank you for sharing and welcome to DGS forums!

I have unending admiration for such imagination, talent, skill, experience, practice, artistry, etc., etc. I can hardly wait to see the end result.

Sneaking in more work here and there. My Sporting Classics knives are keeping me plenty busy.

I have the ejectors working smoothly, and have been working on the trigger group. First pic is of the raw bar I will make the main spring stops from, along with the trigger group.



Here, with the stops drilled and installed with the hammers at rest, and next with the hammers cocked. I actually need to remake one ofthe hammers as the left hammer sits a few degrees forward of the right hammer. The right hammer is is perfect, and the only way to make them match is to remove more material from the sear notch to let it move forward to the left hammers position. That would be a bone headed thing to do, so I will make a new hammer...





Here we have the stops rough ground so the trigger group will fit into the action.



Next step is to install the cocking feet and cocking rods so the action will....cock of course. After that, it will be time to chamber it and get her regulated.
