    Idle hands are dangerous. Especially the hands of a Garden Gnome .

    I was slightly bored of a job site in the summer of 21. Netsurferdude2 had built a beautiful musket. Then the voices started to whisper. Being of weak mind and idle hands, I followed the voices. I decided to try to build a musket out of scrap material. A good old "Our Gang/ Little Rascals" kind of build. And so, with some salvaged 2x6 boards, construction site power tools and the tailgate of my truck, the voices took shape. Once the stocks were shaped, the true craziness began. I gathered broken or shabby pump guns and parts and continued the madness. No these are not the work of art that Netsurferdude2 created, but they are functional, hand-crafted horrors. And now it's time to release the Frankenjagers on the villagers.

          Liquid Co2 for that extra authenticity.... fog of war with every shot!
          And God turned to Gabriel and said: “I shall create a land called Canada of outstanding natural beauty, with majestic mountains soaring with eagles, sparkling lakes abundant with bass and trout, forests full of elk and moose, and rivers stocked with salmon. I shall make the land rich in oil so the inhabitants prosper and call them Canadians, and they shall be praised as the friendliest of all people.”

          “But Lord,” asked Gabriel, “Is this not too generous to these Canadians?”

          And God replied, “Just wait and see the neighbors I shall inflict upon them."

            Nothing better than tailgate construction! I love it.

            I think we need to fashion some bayonets!

              Sounds like someone's metal trashcan lid may magically disappear, and then re appear as a corrugated bayonet. Nothing like building with scrap.

                Partial Tiger Shark, broken Talon, tailgate pistol stock. The start of more insanity. Need a cocking and trigger system

                  Okay, it's finished! Might add a trigger guard. Ram rod cock. Hand load round ball. Push breach closed. Occasionally miss fires on shut. Custom made trigger system. Tiger Shark body and valve. Talon hammer, bolt and main spring. Tailgate scrap wood stock. Shoots amazingly well.

                      Doesn't the 12 gram bucket changer get in the way of holding the dang thing? Looks pretty cool though, I must say.

                        No, it fits easily in my grip. Shoots straight, hard and far. Amazing for a mixed pile of scrap. I've run about 50 rounds through it. It's really fun. Working on a second pile of scrap, so I will have Dueling Pistols.

                            Not one true shop tool involved. Truly a Little Rascal creation. Because it is so ugly, the kills will be even more hilarious.

                              The second of the Dueling Pistols. Tiger shark body, Hammer Pump internals, custom trigger and scrap wood stock.
