Queen Anne Flintlock Fowler

The second in this series of European long arms from the author's collection is this long and graceful fowler in 20 gauge that Jud created especially for my late wife Laura and this post is dedicated to her memory.

The buttplate was hand hammered out of a solid 100 oz bar of silver using a hollow in a stump as a rough form. The trigger guard, sideplate and thimbles were similarly fashioned out of pure silver. The stock is a match with the Jaeger Rifle from the previous post.
