I adore black powder shooting too. My father has all the nice antique stuff. For BP I just have a reproduction .50 Hawken and Italian made Colt Army Sheriff. Got a mess of cartridge guns as well but BP is style.

For the JS-3 you will need a HL KV lower. It only comes with upper/turret and plastic wheel covers for the HL KVs. It is a very nice kit. You can top it off with the absolutely gorgeous muzzle brake from DKLM:
I kinda of did a review/build thread a while ago. I loved it and you will too. I have since replace the barrel with a scale one and has a DKLM muzzle brake waiting to go on it.

There is also this one that's been on for I while and I have no idea where it came from:

Yeah...saw that one as well...really nice kit...didn't know FOV made resin kits

Thing is ...with this one...the Jukenburg ...why would anyone want that Mattoro at that price

I'm trying to land a black powder revolver this week or either of those beauties could shoulder their way into my lineup. Masterpieces by Juckenburg and the odd provenance one isn't bad either.

TAKE A DEEP BREATH PAINLESS ...Then flip a coin

I wonder if the last guy to bid is a SHILL.... if so the seller might get stuck with his own tank

My original post is basically a Show Off anyway, the only thing I have done to it since is to replace the barrel, and still have to put on the new muzzle brake.

BTW just in case anyone is interested in Juck's JT, please be aware that even though he has great cast/texture, the counter sunk bolts for the top plate is NOT in the resin piece. dgsselkirk was kind enough to do it and out in working bolts for me as I don't have the skills to put them on myself.

Thanks again Michael....We'll all PM Dgsselkirk when we get our JS3 s

Sorry I meant the JT........... The JS-3's casting is great and has all the nuts and bolts and the texture turret.
