40 caliber Appalachian rifle.
44″ swamped barrel by Rice Barrels. Nock flintlock and Estes set trigger by Buck Ridge flintlocks.
All of the hardware was forged from a 3/4″ bar of wrought iron.
The maple stock was stained with tannic acid and my home brew aqua fortis made with the same wrought iron.
The forced patina was also made with my mix of ferric chloride and aqua fortis.
