Randy Sherman Rifle








I was very lucky to have won this rifle at the Keating Mountain shoot a few years back along with a Scott Bryan bag and horn. The idea I was told came from a museum piece but I cannot remember where. It is a straight barreled 54 caliber rifle and large Siler lock. The bayonet was Randy's idea for the rifle but he had not finished it by the time of the shoot. He gave me the steel tube and I cut down a brown bess bayonet and welded the two together. The bayonet scabbard I made with vegetable tanned leather and a hemp strap. Thanks again to Randy and Scott
