Latest photos from my August 28th trip to visit Jud at Tenderfoot Hill. The pistols are nearing final shaping, pouring of the entry thimbles then staining of the stocks. Beautiful wood! The colorful cigar box contains the lock parts for the second pistol.
Jud has a surprise planned for the buttcap. Hint: See codename!
His powder was ready and dry.
From flat on his back
Bowie killed him a few in reply.
And young Davy Crockett
Was smiling and laughing
The challenge was fierce
in his eye,
For Texas and freedom
A man more than willing to die!
Jane Bowers "Remember the Alamo"
These pistols have wood as good as it gets, can not wait to see them completed, whoever will own them is lucky.
