Thanks to the generosity of a fellow National Muzzleloading
Rifle Association
"charter club”, the Raccoon
Valley Muzzleloaders (RVML) an exquisite flintlock
longrifle is being offered as this year’s “GRAND PRIZE".
This build was initially started by the recognized builder
Steve Kraling of Goodell,
Iowa. Upon Steve’s untimely passing in 2016 the components
were acquired by
RVML for completion. Assembled in the Verner style (Andrew
Verner, Bethlehem
School, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Circa 1780’s-1790’s)
This right-handed
flintlock boasts a 42-inch, .54 cal., swamped Green Mountain
barrel, a Chamber’s
lock, Davis set triggers and a very fine curly maple stock.
Final assembly was
completed by several of RVML’s members with the final
fitting, carving, engraving
and finishing being provided by the extraordinary -talents
of Rick McCollom
(Chainsaw) of Jefferson, Iowa.
