Hey Badger if you were to walk through his house you would go out of your pea piking mind. He has more long guns than I do and 90% of them are made by him or custom made by by big name gun builders.
When I go there I am like a kid in a candy store

A wheel lock is out of my league but I fully intend to one day get/build a match lock.
