Pin Barrel To The Stock:

2009-02-22 024.JPG (218037 bytes) Now I took a piece of 1/16" thick brass to make tenons to be dovetailed into the bottom of the barrel.  I suspect the original had copper which may have broken or they were not thick enough, which is why they had to brass band the barrel to the stock.

Here are are a series of photos of the tenons being made and2009-02-22 025.JPG (187250 bytes) installed.
