This is one that took me awhile. It is .22 calibur black powder with a california style spring assist blade. Aint she purdy?
Thanks Jim Cooper!

That's a beauty, Bruce!:thumbup: You have carved the top spot in that niche for yourself. Always a joy to see these wonderful creations of yours.

Who did the embellishments?

 

[TJ Smith]

V E R Y NICE.
That's the one you were working on last time we met?
Very Very nice.
Take Care

[Bruce Bump]

The gold wire inlays and engraving/scrim are from Jere Davidson. The bluing is a true blue color by Doug Turnbull. Its the charcoal blue that Ive tried to duplicate without success. Doug is a magic man. He also did the colorcase hardening on the bolsters.

Yep this is the one. Its been a long fun project.

 

[fitzo]

Thanks for the info, Bruce. Highly skilled collaborators. That can certainly form the centerpiece of a high dollar collection.

 

[Mace]

Very, very nice!:thumbup: I wouldn't mind having one of those in my pocket, but I would prefer a .45!
Looks great.
How does it shoot?
Mace

 

[Bruce Bump]

Mace, I can make one in .45 cal. This one holds a tight group at 10 feet.

Its a black powder cap and ball gun. It takes a 30 grain slug and a standard #11 cap. It sells for a bundle.

 

[Raymond Richard]

[Beile]

DANG! That's it, just DANG!

 

[Bruce Bump]

DANG! That's it, just DANG!

[Beile]

Yes

it is, but only if you do a pass around with the .22

 

[rhrocker]

[SteelSlaver]

Simply amazing. I feel pretty humble.

One guestion if one were to make a gun knife what laws apply. I would think blackpower would be OK, but, what about a smokless cartrige?

 

[Deweyknives]

Outstanding work,Bruce!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: Do you make all the pistol mechanism?
