[hiccups]

I got to shoot a really neat muzzle loader today made by Dale Storey. The owner described it as a "mule ear" where the nipple screwed directly into the barrel and the hammer moved sideways.

I searched but couldn't find a web site or contact info for Dale Storey or DGS Gunsmithing. Is he still in business and does anyone have his contact information?

Edited: here's an example of the lock.
