Re: A Mississippi Rifle by Todd Watts
I think I saw a turned-down barrel version that was part of the NY State militia contracts. I was looking at originals on-line while researching these things and saw it nd that was the description. It'd be a simple lathe job to turn one down. I'd only need to get an idea of what bayonet was to be used to get the dimensions right.
I was at BRi this morning discussing these with Jerry and told him about the interest that they have seemed to have sparked on the A-C. He has 2 sitting in my shop waiting for me to attack so they are on the way (in theory at least).
