Dave, do you use electrolysis for the metal parts?
Amazing the number of black powder guns found loaded.

Ten gauge is not all that uncommon. Loaded up they will thump you for sure. You have an interesting project there.
Finished results will need pics.

Frank I have ajar a 10 g. Only once, with all the problems I have had with my shoulders I sure did not want to add more pain.
